The .357 String Band
Shot Down
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
I've been
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
I've been
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
Well I done swallowed a key
Heaven ain't got no room for me
But it's been mighty rough here since I died
But everyone's gonna be around
Whoop and Holler, I'm back in town
Got old friends, got a lot of them hanging around
I've been
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
Alright boys, so light your asses up
Cause everything's getting all crowded down here
Now pull men, it's the latter day since
Headline A, evangelists get in the back of the line
Oh and Pagans, and homosexuals our complaint lines right over
I'm sorry
Well I hit the banks just the other day
I got admit, I got bills to pay
Well it's the kind of thing that will make a poor man frown
So whipped up a plan as quick as I could
Until she gave me cash like I thought she would
Right about then security shot me dead
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
What the hell is that?
Man ain't go no place in hell
Send that shit back up
Thank you
Well preacher told me before I died
Know that I've never even tried
Said "son you're going to burn in hell, amen."
Well that ain't buckled down an excuse
Wrapped my neck up in that noose
Devil I'm coming home so warm my bed
I've been
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
Shot down
Three fifty seven
Ain't gonna make my way up into heaven
Jesus ain't hearing me, so I'm heading back down
