Well I've seen the devil
And I've seen the light
And I know the difference
Between wrong and right
But there still are times
When it's so hard to tell
If I'm going the wrong way
To heaven or hell

Cause I've been a sinner
And I've been a saint
There's a few things I ain't done
And a few things I can't
I was this close to heaven when I slipped and fell
Between a rock and a hard place
Between heaven and hell

Cause I have been lost
And I have been found
I've been a square
And I've been around
I'm down on my knees
At the heartbreak hotel
Begging for directions
Between heaven and hell

Cause I've been a sinner
And I've been a saint
There's a few things I ain't done
And a few things I can't
I was this close to heaven when I slipped and fell
Between a rock and a hard place
Between heaven and hell

Lord I'm down here on my knees
At some old hotel
Asking for directions
To heaven or hell
