The air is getting hotter

There's a rumbling in the sky

I've been wading through the high muddy water

With the heat rising through my eyes

Every day your memory grows dimmer

It doesn't haunt me like it did before

I've been walking through the middle of nowhere

Trying to get to heaven before they close the door

When I was in Missouri

They would not let me be

I had to leave there in a hurry

I only saw what they let me see

That broke a heart that loved you

Now you can seal up the book and not write anymore

I've been walking that lonesome valley

Trying to get to heaven before they close the door

People on the platforms

Waiting for the trains

I can hear their hearts a-beatin'

Like pendulum swinging on a chain

When you think that you've lost everything

You find out you can lose a little more

I'm just going down the... that road feeling bad

Trying hard to get to heaven before they close the door

Trying to get to heaven before they close the door

I'm going down the river

Going down to New Orleans

They tell me everything is gonna be all right

But I don't know what "all right" even means

I'll close my eyes and I wonder, boys

If everything is as hollow as it seems

I've been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down

Trying to get to heaven before they close the door

Trying to get to heaven before they close the door (Trying to get there)

(And relive my dreams)

Trying to get to heaven before they close the door

(I've been all around the world, boys)

Trying to get to heaven... before they close the door
