Gospel Songtext

von John Moreland

I wanna make it out alive and never think about looking back
I wanna drive like hell when I steal the devil's Cadillac
I wanna take that old Eldorado down a dirt road
With How I Made it Over playing on the radio

I wanna be solid as the earth and cool like the night air
I wanna believe even thought I know life don't play fair
I wanna wear my heart on my sleeve, but be tough when I have to
I wanna dust off the stars and hang them on the wall for you

I wanna ask all the questions with answers we'll never know
I wanna find my faith in records from long ago
I wanna set fear on fire, and give dreaming a fair shot
And never give up whether anybody cares or not
