"Looking For A Halo" lyrics
"Looking For A Halo"
I drew a picture on a napkin
Everyday at the bar
I fell asleep on a dirt road
Wished upon a shooting star
Little mama she was on the way to Dallas
Mama she was on that funeral home
And now I'm drinking a bottle of Kentucky, mama
Crying that you're gone
I drove my truck to the country
Staring at the dirt for a while
Calling out to heaven
Won't you help me forget about the woman's smile
All the nights that we would share and dance for hours
Underneath the glare of the neon moon
Now I'm sitting here heating up the water
With a needle and a spoon
Open up that wind, mama, let me in
Calling out to Jesus
Open up my heart, take away my sin
Looking for a halo
Open up my eyes, hope to see you again
Calling out to heaven
Open up
Them angels won't let me in
When I saw the news on the TV
Damn near bout fell to the floor
Somebody better call the damn doctor
I can't even cry no more
Little mama she was on the stage at the opry
Mama she was buried six feet in the ground
Now I'm digging a grave in the tavern, mama
Wishing you were around
Open up that wind, mama, let me in
Calling out to Jesus
Open up my heart, take away my sin
Looking for a halo
Open up my eyes, I wanna see you again
Calling out to heaven
Open up
Them angels won't let me in
