Lord, take me home to the peaceful valley Down the winding rivers the city of souls I've grown so tired and my heart's too heavy To walk any longer to your cities of gold All my life, I've longed for forgiveness But I can never seem to get enough All my life, I've been rocked into the darkness With a gun to my head Trying to find a peaceful song Trying to find a peaceful song To sing when everything goes wrong Till the peaceful valley calls me home Up there in the clouds, in that glorious kingdom Tell me, there ain't nothin' but an easy decline Can I still smoke cigarettes and have my coffee Up there in heaven and a bottle of wine? All my life, I've been lost out in the darkness But I can never seem to get enough All my life, I've been locked into the darkness With a gun to my head Trying to find a peaceful song Trying to find a peaceful song To sing when everything goes wrong Till the peaceful valley calls me home Oh, take me home to the peaceful valley Down the winding rivers to the city of gold
