And i wish i knew
Right from wrong
Instead of puttin' it
In all these songs
And each time i drown
My sorrow and drink

It isn't of your face
That i think
Well i'm on a road
To heavens gate

And i know i made
My own fate
And i'm please saint peter
Yeah, have mercy on me

Chorus:
And you know i tried
But i could not be true
And everything i have
I've given it to you
And i know it's wrong
It's such a waste
And i should have taken
The narrow and straight

Well i could have been
Sent from above
If i only had
Someone like made of love
And thinking
Please saint peter
Yeah have mercy on me

If you will, be pious proud
If you will i won't cry out loud

(chorus)

Well i'm on a road
To heavens gate
And i know i made
My own, fate
And i'm beggin'
Please saint peter
Have mercy on me
