Well I woke up this mornin' it was drizzlin' rain Around the curve come a passenger train Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan Jimmy he's dead he's been a long time gone Been a long time gone a long time gone If you wanna get to heaven gotta D-I-E you

I left the lights, the cars, the parties on the strip The up all nights and your sunrise kiss Yeah I was a fool to think I could just move on It's like that blue water ran up the highway It's so intense, it's blowing out my tail gate And that sunset is

Surprise surprise Yesterday is yesterday And lies they lied You don't have to love this town Walking through these empty streets This town is dead Rain is coming harder now upon your head You can't get far enough away

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby. Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream, Really do come true. Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds

It must have been moonglow, way up in the blue It must have been moonglow that led me straight to you And I keep on prayin', "Oh Lord, please let this last" We seemed to float right through the air Heavenly songs seemed to come from everywhere And now

Say goodbye But I stays way too long Eat my supper in Mexico I won't see you no more I wanted to leave you see I wanted to leave it ya see Wanted to leave it ya see But stays way too long Well the girl that I'm loving

That moonglow gave me you Way up in the blue It must have been moonglow We seem to float right in the air Heavenly songs seem to come from everywhere And now when there's moonglow I always remember That led me straight to you I still hear you sayin'

It must have been moonglow, way up in the blue It must have been moonglow that led me straight to you And I keep on prayin', "Oh Lord, please let this last" We seemed to float right through the air Heavenly songs seemed to come from everywhere And now

Never mind I'll find someone like you Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead Don't forget me I beg, I'll remember you said I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but I Couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it Sometimes it lasts in

Well I woke up this mornin' it was drizzlin' rain Around the curve come a passenger train Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan Jimmy he's dead he's been a long time gone Been a long time gone a long time gone If you wanna get to heaven gotta D-I-E you
