Buddy Jewell - Hell Bent and Heaven Bound lyrics

[Verse 1] Mama was a rock, Daddy was a Rolling Stone He spent most of his weekends raising Cain in a honkytonk Like father, like son, I was a son-of-a-gun Running down that dead-end road I was dancing to the devil's rhythm 'Til Jesus rocked my soul [Chorus] I was hell bent but now I'm heaven bound I traded in that whiskey bottle for a different kind of Crown Hey I'm headed straight for the pearly gates Ain't nothing gonna slow me down I was hell bent but now I'm heaven bound [Instrumental break] [Verse 2] Now you should've seen the look that night on the preacher's face When Dad walked down the aisle while the choir sang Amazing Grace He said, "My son and my sweet wife got something that I need" Yeah the life we lead just might be the only Bible some people read [Chorus] I was hell bent but now I'm heaven bound I traded in that whiskey bottle for a different kind of Crown Hey I'm headed straight for the pearly gates Ain't nothing gonna slow me down I was hell bent but now I'm heaven bound [Instrumental break] [Chorus] I was hell bent but now I'm heaven bound I traded in that whiskey bottle for a different kind of Crown Yeah I'm headed straight for the pearly gates Ain't nothing gonna slow me down I was hell bent but now I'm heaven bound Lord I was hell bent but now I'm heaven bound
