Three steps

Oooh, He can't refrain. Chasing whiskey or Dames Three steps from heaven. Both feet in the flames. Seven come eleven. Old Satan called his name. He's got a short ride On a hell bound train.. Time to pay the toll. No Doubt of blame. He traded his soul.. And forsake all shame. Then an Angle said son. Now, You need to pray Three steps from heaven. Both feet in the flames.

I really like the snappy rhythm of this one, R.J. Excelsior! -- even if this guy is headed straight south! ~ Gershon
