Rodney Crowell - Closer To Heaven Lyrics
I don't like humus, I hate long linesNosy neighbors and the nation blindChirpy news anchors alter my moodI'm offended by buss words like awesome men doI look like a train wreck, I feel like a blobTill you get to know me, you may think I'm a snobBut I'm closer to heaven than I've ever beenI don't eat sushi, I don't smoke grassI don't wear pajamas, I don't drive fastI hate that all gossip and tassel shoesSlick politicians, they give me the bluesI don't ride in Limos, I don't play golfI don't own a riffle that will blow your head offBut I'm closer to heaven than I've ever beenI'm riding that way from cradle to graveI'm learning to feel my hands on the wheelI love my friends, I love my wifeFour little babies are the light of my lifeI love Sissy Spacek, I love God ClarkAll the biscuits and gravy I can eat with a forkI don't wanna be famous, who gives a damn?I just wanna be happy where ever I amAnd I'm closer to heaven than I've ever beenI'm closer to heaven than I've ever beenCloser to heavenCloser to heaven
