I wish I had a perfect love Something to admire before I turn back to dust Peace never comes for fools like us You can bite by the barrel but it's never enough, it's never enough It's a long road honey, to heaven from here Oh it's scared and bloody and the path ain't quite clear Oh and lord ain't we ugly, when the shadows disappear It's a long road honey, oh to heaven from here And read me my rights for my funeral verse I spent more time in jail than I did in church Forward my mail oh to hell or worse So I can wear the debts and the warrants I earned, the warrants I earned It's a long road honey, to heaven from here Oh it's scared and bloody and the path ain't quite clear Oh and lord ain't we ugly, when the shadows disappear It's a long road honey, oh to heaven from here It's a long road honey, to heaven from here Oh it's scared and bloody and the path ain't quite clear Oh and lord ain't we ugly, when the shadows disappear It's a long road honey, oh to heaven from here
