Mansions In Heaven

The old paper mill stinks up the beaches As I walk along the ocean shore I'm just a plain man, thoughts full of creases Haven't accomplished much, but I dream of more Mansions in heaven I see myself walking with the king The angels are descending To wrap me up in red velveteen I don't control much of my home life I'm not an old man but I'm not young anymore Haven't kept in contact with any of my good friends So I live with strangers, sleep on another man's floor Mansions in heaven I see myself walking with the king The angels are descending To wrap me up in red velveteen As I pack my suit bag, soon I'll be leaving Going back to the earth which is where I come from Withstood the heartache, kept on believing It ain't winning or losing just the singing of the song Mansions in heaven I see myself walking with the king The angels are descending To wrap me up in red velveteen Mansions in heaven I see myself walking with the king Mansions in heaven The old paper mill stinks up the beaches As I walk along the ocean shore
