Gates of Heaven

(One two three four...wait, that was too fast.)One man, one man without a gun.

lonely...one man who stood alone.

His name was Jesus named after

a man who hung on a cross

he is not a man of consequence

Jesus did not have a prayer

for he was pitted against the sort of folks

that are not the sort of folks

who are the sort who careOne man, one man without a gun

lonely...one man who had no one

dying, he died a William Holden death

drunken, liquor upon his dying breath

his blood flowed, his mighty rivers blow,

but he did not suffer any pain

his final act was to not act at all

the nectar had boiled his brainOne man, one man without a gun

lonely...one man who stood alone

all dressed up with no place special to go

as he stands and knocks at the gates of heaven

the lord he was out

the gates were all locked up

a sign hung on the gate

said the lord would return at seven.One man, one man without a gun

lonely... one man who stood alone

one man, one man without a gun

lonely... one man without anyone.
