Straight to Hell

Love me now while we're alive It's the best thing we can do We'll have no time upon Cloud Nine So Heaven on Earth will have to do I can sing like a bird And dance like a demon And I do it all so well 'Cause I made a deal with the Devil And when I die I'm going Straight to Hell Oh Yeah I'm going Straight to Hell Standing at the Crossroads He offered wine women and song Riches, Fame and Fortune In my hands from that day on I was granted there and then A life of Rock and Roll It seemed like such a bargain For just one eternal soul I know I'll curse this damned decision And I'll regret it the moment I fall But I'll be making the most Of a bad situation Till my number is called Sometimes I swear I've come out on top In this ill conceived contract There's nights I say It's a small price to pay For the life and times I've had I think "Here's to the Gents and Ladies And the foolish times we spent They cost me Afterlife in Paradise And they were worth every single cent" So have a dance With the walking damned Before my time is done A deal is a deal and I really doubt Fire and Brimstone will be much fun I have every expectation That my final prayers will go unheard And my veiled death bed confession Will not move the Mighty Lord I'm sure that I'll be sorry When he slams St. Peter's Gate But I'll dive right into damnation With a smile across my face --- Straight to Hell - Great Big Sea
