Here's To The Halcyon Lyrics - Blame It On Gravity - Old 97's

get me through this Lord and I'll do anything you say 

Live right read a good book I'll settle down and prey 

When Gabriel blows his horn I know things might not go my way 

Get me through this Lord and Ill do anything you say 

Pluck me from this driftwood Lord Ill be a better man 

Raise me from the deep sea in the palm of your great hand 

Let me see tomorrow and Ill try to understand 

How the sinking of my little vessel fits into your plan 

Heres to the Halcyon, forever may she rest 

At the bottom of the ocean, for the good Lord knows best 

You made her from lumber and you gave her to the sea 

Now good Lord what do you propose to do with me? 

Get me through this Lord and Ill devote my life to you 

Things look pretty bleak right now but I know youll come through 

Ive squandered my good fortune and my other fortune too 

Get me through this Lord and Ill devote my life to you 

I cannot change my past mistakes 

Ive led a life devoid of virtue 

Either way the man I am 

Is dead and gone although I know the past 

Can come around and hurt you 

Get me through this lord and I will never drink again 

Ill pore over my Bible and Ill pour out all my gin 

Ill prove to you a sinning man can turn his back on sin 

Give me some fresh water Lord Ill never drink again 

Heres to the Halcyon, forever may she rest 

At the bottom of the ocean, for the good Lord knows best 

You made her from lumber and you gave her to the sea 

Now good Lord what do you propose to do with me? 

Heres to the Halcyon, forever may she rest 

At the bottom of the ocean, for the good Lord knows best 

You made her from lumber and you gave her to the sea 

Now good Lord what do you propose to do with me? 

Good Lord what do you propose to do with me?
