I never liked the taste of whiskey
till I kissed it off of her lips.
Never knew just what was hitting me,
getting me tipsy.
But they said, Levi's on a dogwood branch.
Yeah, she was taking me under.
I might have lost my innocence,
but she was saving my soul that summer.
I don't know much about eternity,
or where somebody like me's gonna wind up going.
All I know is that I've already been parked
in a Chevy by the deep river rolling.
And that summer night shooting star
paradise might be all that I'm getting.
Kissing and sipping at seven and seven,
somewhere just south of heaven.
Mm,
yeah.
She might have been a fallen angel.
No, I didn't care at all.
I never thought a prayer could be answered
with a whispered sweet southern drawl.
And now when I close my eyes,
I see her silhouette dance on the river,
the way we spent those endless nights.
That's the way I could spend forever.
I don't know much about eternity,
or where somebody like me's gonna wind up going.
All I know is that I've already been parked
in a Chevy by the deep river rolling.
And that summer night shooting star
paradise might be all that I'm getting.
Kissing and sipping at seven and seven,
somewhere just south of heaven.
Ooh,
somewhere just beyond the Jericho line,
little white church road back through the pines,
down where the three cross river unwinds.
If there's a heaven on earth,
man,
that'd be mine.

Just a little bit south of heaven.
