So roll, roll down, rob a railroad train
Look like Robert Ford did Jessie James
Heart full of love, but I'm only here to kill her
I fear that the devil may have spoke too soon
And ran through the room with a bottle of you
Fell down in a chair, and that was where I heard him sing

And he sang "Love is only a heartbeat away
Best save for the darkest of your days"
And he sang "Love is only a heartbeat away
Best save for the darkest of your days"

So I raised my glass to the Holy Ghost
Father and Son the she loved the most
Saint Peter, won't you please forgive her?
Turn yourself and old blind eye
Damn! Heaven knows we tried
And now he's never heard Ma sing

And she sang "Love is only a heartbeat away
Best save for the darkest of your days"
And she sang "Love is only a heartbeat away
Best save for the darkest of your days"

And I know I wasn't around half as much as I could've
And I never let you say half as much as you would've
As you would've

So roll, roll down, rob a railroad train
Look like Robert Ford did Jessie James
Heart full of love, but I'm only here to kill her
Remember me for mistakes I've made
I always did leave when I should've stayed
And oh my sins taught me how to sing

And I sang "Love is only a heartbeat away
Best save for the darkest of your days"
And I sang "Love is only a heartbeat away
Best save for the darkest of your days
The darkest of your days"
