Heaven Way

That's how they like jazz, that's how they like wine
That's how they make true things they have in mind
That's how they step on the Heaven Way
That's how those live who will die anyway

That's how they throw out the iron neck
That's how they watch on the sight of their backs
That's how they leave home for the Heaven Way
That's how going to war and returning away

And you will play
And you will play and play
Just to see the sight of the Heaven Way
Hey hey hey hey hey

That's how they try any coin by their teeth
That's how they wipe any kiss off their lips
That's how they already stand on the way
Start thinking over about today

That's how they bring child from the unknown man
That's how they stand up when bullet is sent
It's oh so painful - the Heaven Way
But the life - from the egg and the start - from the end

And you will play
And you will play and play
Just to see the sight of the Heaven Way
Hey hey hey hey hey

Who's here the rich - please answer me
How they turn pure silver to lead
How they bring out the throat on the Heaven Way
How what was so good - became evil made

How in the morning you're looking ease
How the death's dancing on the wings
On that hot road, on the Heaven Way
And over and over trying to sing

And you will play
And you will play and play
Just to see the sight of the Heaven Way
Hey hey hey hey hey

You are the master of sleepy grass
It only means that you'll be the last
It means that you're near the Heaven Way
Where lips of the trumpet are stamped with dust

That's how pull rain thru guitar as a bottle
That's how they play overlooking a note
That's how they dream on the Heaven Way
Easily rise before the bad came

And you will play
And you will play and play
Just to see the sight of the Heaven Way
Hey hey hey hey hey
