Halfway to Hell Songtext
von Jelly Roll

To save you, boy, He gave his only-begotten Son...
Whoever, whoever believes in him will be saved
And so will not perish
You′ll not be saved because of your good works
You'll not be saved because of your good deeds
You′ll be saved by his blood

Yeah
I'm a county jail revival
I'm a bottle and a Bible
I′m a rolling stone disciple with a cross across my face
I′m a trailer park tornado
Jagged edges on my halo
Hope the chariot gon' swing low and carry me away

This little light of mine
Damn near burned me alive
Lord knows that mama tried
And I don′t know if I'm


Halfway to Heaven or halfway to Hell
My angels and demons at war with myself
One foot in the fire and I still can′t tell
Am I halfway to Heaven
Halfway to Heaven or Hell?

I'm a dive bar Sunday sermon
Holy water with my bourbon
Standing on a bridge, I′m burning with a can of gasoline
Am I worth savin' if I'm always fadin′?
It feels like I′m caught in-between

Halfway to Heaven or halfway to Hell
My angels and demons at war with myself
One foot in the fire and I still can't tell
Am I halfway to Heaven
Halfway to Heaven or Hell?

This little light of mine
Damn near burned me alive
Lord knows that Mama tried
And I don′t know if I'm


Halfway to Heaven or halfway to Hell
My angels and demons at war with myself
Halfway to Heaven or halfway to Hell
My angels and demons at war with myself
One foot in the fire and I still can′t tell
Am I halfway to Heaven
Halfway to Heaven or Hell?
Halfway to Heaven or Hell?

Lost in the fiery lakes of hell
Because what you believe you have crossed over from dark to light
So what are you waiting for?
What will you do?
We're not told to sit right here...
