Well, I have seen the gates of heaven
I'm afraid they're gonna pass me by
I am sleeping with the devil
She put a thorn deep in my side
And I got wings to fly to heaven
But she turned my heart black as sin
And I am praying for redemption But I know I'm gonna fall again
Cause I have seen this in my dreams Where I lose on account of you
And I'm wanted for these crimes Dead or alive
Well,
I am in this grand cathedral Cause I know it's high time I choose
But I am tangled in a dark web And it's all on account of you
And I got ways to find the whiskey That
they make in those cold black hills
Yet I swore I'd fight the spirits But I know that I never will
Cause I have seen this in my dreams Where I lose on account of you
And I'm wanted for these crimes Dead or alive
I don't really
understand it How it got this way But it is you,
baby It's you,
baby
I don't even understand it How it got this bad But it is you,
baby It's you,
baby
That makes me fall
I beseeched the rock of ages But then
she had to wear that short black dress
I tried to give my heart to Jesus
Then she tore it right from my chest
And I got wings to fly to heaven But she turned my soul black as sin
And I am praying for forgiveness But I know I'm gonna fall again
Cause I have seen this in my dreams Where I lose on account of you
And I'm wanted for these crimes Dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
