Larry Norman - A Dangerous Place To Be lyrics

I saw you with your suitcase And your guitar in your hand And your blue suede shoes were pointing Toward the promised land some men are ruined by failure Some by their success Some men are ruined by the wiles of a Wicked woman in a low-cut dress Those heading for destruction are blind and they cannot see And where they're gonna wake up is a dangerous place to be You will have to choose over and over Or you'll sing the blues over and over Are you gonna lose over and over Or change the way you live Instrumental pa**age Falling down the scarlet staircase Comes jubal's last band They can't see the cross cause they're too busy listening To the clapping of one hand I'll be waiting in armageddon When the lawyers come around I'll be praying for the strength of samson To pull the courtroom down Don't let anybody tell you that your soul is already free 'cause you'll die and where you'll wake up is a dangerous place to be You will have to choose over and over Or you'll sing the blues over and over Are you gonna lose over and over Or change the way you live Like the chief of sinners among absolute beginners Busy dying the daily d**h Falling down in loneliness but i rose up in peacefulness And now i'm living from breath to breath Instrumental Well i am only human Everybody knows my sin They bring it up in conversation Again and again I may have had a broken spirit But i was trying to do my best And the ones who refuse to forgive me should just stone me So i can get some rest You've got to learn to believe what you cannot see Or where you're gonna wake up is a dangerous place to be You will have to choose over and over Or you'll sing the blues over and over Are you gonna lose over and over Or change the way you live Does He have to die over and over Be crucified over and over Will you live the lies over and over Or change the way you live Looking for direction waiting for a sign Standing still on the road i was on I keep coming to the crossroads and sometimes there's no warning saying This way to babylon Instrumental pa**age and travail I'm looking for a sign to follow and a road to travel on Until i get a clear direction i'm stranded on babylon I'm looking for a sing to follow and a road to travel on Until i get a clear direction i'm stranded in babylon
