A Dangerous Place To Be Songtext - Larry Norman

A Dangerous Place To Be - Larry Norman

i saw you with your suitcase

and your guitar in your hand

and your blue suede shoes were pointing

toward the promised land

some men are ruined by failure

some by their success

some men are ruined by the wiles of a

wicked woman in a low-cut dress


those heading for destruction are blind and they cannot see

and where they're gonna wake up is a dangerous place to be



you will have to choose over and over

or you'll sing the blues over and over

are you gonna lose over and over

or change the way you live



instrumental passage



falling down the scarlet staircase

comes jubal's last band

they can't see the cross cause they're too busy listening

to the clapping of one hand


i'll be waiting in armageddon

when the lawyers come around

i'll be praying for the strength of samson

to pull the courtroom down


don't let anybody tell you that your soul is already free

'cause you'll die and where you'll wake up is a dangerous place to be



you will have to choose over and over

or you'll sing the blues over and over

are you gonna lose over and over

or change the way you live


like the chief of sinners among absolute beginners

busy dying the daily death

falling down in loneliness but i rose up in peacefulness

and now i'm living from breath to breath



instrumental



well i am only human

everybody knows my sin

they bring it up in conversation

again and again


i may have had a broken spirit

but i was trying to do my best

and the ones who refuse to forgive me should just stone me

so i can get some rest


you've got to learn to believe what you cannot see

or where you're gonna wake up is a dangerous place to be



you will have to choose over and over

or you'll sing the blues over and over

are you gonna lose over and over

or change the way you live


does He have to die over and over

be crucified over and over

will you live the lies over and over

or change the way you live


looking for direction waiting for a sign

standing still on the road i was on

i keep coming to the crossroads and sometimes there's no warning saying

this way to babylon



instrumental passage and travail



i'm looking for a sign to follow and a road to travel on

until i get a clear direction i'm stranded on babylon

i'm looking for a sing to follow and a road to travel on

until i get a clear direction i'm stranded in babylon
