Lyrics
When my time expires
Take me to the fires
And we'll all go
The only way we know
Thanks, I'll live my life now
Not tomorrow
You won't see my face
In so higher place
Oh dear father, please listen to me
I've not long to live, standing on this cliff
One side the land lays, but these jagged old rocks
Are so way for a good man to go
Offer so redemtions, there's no takers near
Just you mind your manners, we've got company here
I've had a feeling about those crusty old men
I'm not sure if they're angels or ghosts
You can't stake no claim on my last name
When it's time to go, just throw me in that hole
And there I gladly lay, cuz this world wears me out
With all these offerings of false gold
The dogs want my money, the vultures want my eyes
From where I'm standing I realize
One side the land lays, but those jagged old rocks
Are starting to look real good to me
(Jump you bugger jump!)
I've seen the light
I've seen the light
I've felt those flames
Throw another one on
We're going down
I've seen the lights
I've felt those flames
Writer(s): Dear
