Rodney Crowell - Sex & Gasoline

Closer To Heaven

I don't like hummus, I hate long lines
Nosey neighbors and Venetian blinds
Chirpin' news anchors alter my mood
I'm offended by buzzwords like awesome and dude
I look like a train wreck, I feel like a blob
'Til you get to know me, you may think I'm a snob

But I'm closer to heaven than I've ever been

I don't eat sushi, I don't smoke grass
I don't wear pajamas, I don't drive fast
I hate idle gossip and tasseled shoes
Slick politicians, they give me the blues
I don't ride in Limos, I don't play golf
I don't own a rifle that will blow your head off

But I'm closer to heaven (closer to heaven) than I've ever been

I'm ridin' that way from cradle to grave
I'm learnin' to feel my hands on the wheel

I love my friends, I love my wife
Four little babies are the light of my life
I love Sissy Spacek, I love Guy Clark
All the biscuits and gravy I can eat with a fork
I don't wanna be famous, who gives a damn?
I just wanna be happy wherever I am

And I'm closer to heaven (closer to heaven) than I've ever been
I'm closer to heaven (closer to heaven) than I've ever been

Closer to heaven
Closer to heaven
