cary swinney - dream song lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there was a time
i used to ride
not five days ago
i died
and my widow
like a b+tterfly
flies alone

[verse 2]
and mother earth, she turns
she don’t care
took my tattered soul
and left my body bare
like a leaf i fall
from the air
i’m just another unknown

[verse 3]
and saint peter stands
like a stone
his cigar in hand
he smokes alone
and then he laughs
from his throne
and says, “come on in
cary, how you been?”
[verse 4]
and i said, “not so good
i guess you heard the news?
i died the other day
the pills and booze
and i was afraid
you wouldn’t let me in
for i have sinned”

[verse 5]
and he said, “that’s okay
don’t worry, dude
because we’re all
just like you
and i ain’t who
you think i am
you better look again!”

[verse 6]
oh, his eyes turned white
and his face turned red
and h+rns appeared
upon his head
and i was thinkin’, “oh, sh+t!
i’m dead!”
enough said
[fiddle solo]

[verse 7]
and there were people there
i’d seen before
in the book i’d read
but i wasn’t sure
and then this old man stood
and spoke his name
and he spoke his name
in shame

[verse 8]
well, he had long gray hair
and a long gray beard
and from his wrinkled hands
a stone tablet appeared
and screams were all
that i could hear
and there was pain
such pain

[verse 9]
then moses cried
he wept a tear
he blinked his eyes
and disappeared
and tick+tock bells
rang inside my ears
and i was home
sweet home
[verse 10]
i guess i dreamed
i guess i did
for i have been redeemed
h+ll, i ain’t dead!
there were no screams
no h+rns on no head
and no h+ll
oh well

[verse 11]
hey, i feel good
to be alive
like i have kissed the snake
and i survived
and i don’t worry now
about some other side
when i’ve got this side
we’ve all got this side

[verse 12]
so light one up
and drink one down
and tell the man
we’ll have another round
so we’re lost
we’ll all be found
you’ve got to have faith
and that’s all!
that’s all
