Nathan Wagner - House Of The Setting Sun

Papa was a wise man
said listen to me son
this world's out to get you
when they come you've gotta run

From the pagan things of Korah
'cause after all there is a judge
so be a Man of Heaven
or judgements sure to come

I'm going down, down, down, down
to New Orleans
I'm going down, down, down, down
to the land of sin

I've had too many drinks now
empty bottles on the floor
everything is hazy
Devil's knockin' at my door

I'm choking on the silence
waiting for a sign
that all can be undone now
my soul be sanctified

I'm going down, down, down, down
to New Orleans
I'm going down, down, down, down
to the land of sin
I'm going down, down, down, down
no turning back
I'm going down, down, down, down
way down

This road is getting steeper
the waters running dry
my fate is set before me
I guess this is my time

Father please forgive me
and Mama don't you cry
I tried to use my own strength but
salvations been denied

I'm going down, down, down, down
to New Orleans
I'm going down, down, down, down
to the land of sin
going down, down, down, down
no turning back
going down, down, down, down ah!
