Cornmeal - Heaven on Time lyrics

Heaven on Time words and music by Chris Gangi I hope to get to heaven on time. Been down too long on old #9 It seems like I've been here before, I've been knockin' on heaven's door I hope to get to heaven on time Out in the hills of the Carolina mines, Out past the lilac where the river runs dry I've seen the end of my days pa** me by, And I've been out too long and I'm too old to fly I hope to get to heaven on time I hope to get to heaven on time. Been down too long on old #9 It seems like I've been here before, I've been knockin' on heaven's door I hope to get to heaven on time Spent my days riding coal trains down the rails I've lived my life by the good book and all it's tales Worked so hard that there's nothing left to spare And I've been down too long And I've seen that white light shine I hope to get to heaven on time I hope to get to heaven on time. Been down too long on old #9 It seems like I've been here before, I've been knockin' on heaven's door I hope to get to heaven on time Since the day I was born till I'm buried in the ground I watched that river run them folk from town to town And I saved my faith ( I sing this song) ‘fore coming hours bring me down As that river rolls, I still can't see the signs I hope to get to heaven on time I hope to get to heaven on time. Been down too long on old #9 It seems like I've been here before, I've been knockin' on heaven's door I hope to get to heaven on time
