she drowned in molasses down on Purity Street
last thing she tasted was sticky and sweet
was a smile on her face at the time of her death
she made it to heaven before her last breath

before her last breath before her last breath
She made it to heaven

grandfather still young day that he was called home
passed in his bed but he wasn't alone
he had taken a young lover and she loved him to death
he made it to heaven before his last breath

before his last breath before his last breath
he made it
and all that I ask in the time I have left
is to make it to Heaven before my last breath
before my last breath

was a man sang his heart out he was up on the stage
his spirit was rising and the band kept on playing
was a smile on his face as he lay down and left
he made it to heaven before his last breath

before his last breath before his last breath
he made it
and all that I ask in the time I have left
is to make it to Heaven before my last breath
before my last breath
