Robert Tepper New Life Story lyrics

FLOATIN DOWN A RIVER LOOKING FOR SALVATION
ALL MY TRIALS HAVE COME TO PASS
NOW I'M MOVING ON
I HAVE HERD THE PREACHER I HAVE FACED THE LYER
WHEN THE WINDS OF CHANGE DON'T COME YOU START TO DIE

HERE IN MY HAND IS A LOADED GUN
HEE IN MY HEAD THERE'S NO PLACE TO RUN
I'M ON MY WAY TO KINGDOM COME
MY ONLY FRIEND IS A LOADED GUN

I HAVE BEEN A VICTIM IN THIS LIFE THAT I'VE FORSAKEN
TOO LONG I'VE BEEN LIVING IN THIS HOUSE OF PAIN

AND MY HOPE IS GONE
I KNOW IT'S A GIVEN I WON'T GO TO HEAVEN
SO TELL MY SON I'M SORRY FOR LEAVING HIM
AND FOR WHAT I'VE DONE

HERE IN MY HAND IS A LOADED GUN
HEE IN MY HEAD THERE'S NO PLACE TO RUN
I'M ON MY WAY TO KINGDOM COME
MY ONLY FRIEND IS A LOADED GUN
