Told my mom goodbye when I was 18
She told me bye for good at age 63
She was an angel right here on earth
There was sure a fine line between heaven and her

I went and married the woman I love
Three years of me later and she'd had enough
Just one more angel I didn't deserve
There was sure a fine line between heaven and her

Feels like everything I love I lose
God gives and He takes away
Pray'ins the right thing to do
But I don't feel like pray'in today

So I think Iall just sit here and drink for a spell
Because theres sure a fine line between heaven and hell

Now I'am headed nowhere 99 miles an hour
In a 62 dodge with three hundred horsepower
If she holds together I might get the nerve
To cross that fine line between heaven and her

Feels like everything I love I lose
God giveth and He takes away
Pray'ins the right thing to do
But I donat feel like pray'in today

So I think Iall just slow down and think for a spell
Because theres sure a fine line between heaven and hell
