Sun Going Down

I woke up this morning, someone was knocking at my door.
I woke up this morning, someone was knocking at my door.
And I said hello sweet Satan, I believe it's time to go.
Thirteenth apostle knocking at my door,
Telling me that I can't play with you no more.
I guess the wages of sin now, couldn't buy my meals,
Screaming out your name baby, how does that feel.
Feeling through the out door, all throughout the night.
Waiting for the doctor to come and make me right.
Fading from the bedside, I've lost all appeal
To stay with you baby
Baby how does that, how does that feel?
Sun's going down,
sun's going down
Sun's going down,
sun's going down
Ohh go down
Sing throughout the streets baby, And you sing throughout the night
You go and tell the people People my soul is aflight
I guess the wages of sin now, yeah they couldn't buy my meals
I'm screaming out your name baby, how does that feel
Thirteenth apostle knocking at my door
Telling me that I can't, I can't play with you no more
I guess the wages of sin now, yeah they couldn't buy my meals
I'm screaming out your name girl, baby how does that
Now honey how does that feel?
Sun's going down,
Looked at the heavens above
and I said a little prayer
As if the heavens above
would even care
Looked at the heavens above
and I said a little prayer
As if the heavens above
would even care care
I said Jesus,
won't you meet me in the middle of the air?
I think my wings are falling below Jesus, I need another pair
Jesus, Won't you meet me in the middle of the air
I think my wings are falling below I need another pair
St. Peter at the gates of heaven, baby won't you let me in, let me in
St. Peter at the gates of heaven, honey won't you let me in, let me in
St. Peter at the gates of heaven, baby won't you let me in, let me in
I said now Peter, listen Peter, come on Peter,
Won't you let me in!
Right now!
I said sun's going down
