Halfway To Hell (Exit 333) Lyrics

The wind's been whipping hard the last ten miles or so

Blowing my truck across the road

Out beyond the headlights

There's a little patch of town lights

I can just see

And it's where I need to go

Last night I stood on Congress

In South Austin

Where it's city as far as you can see

Now I'm turning off the highway

Into the dark and lonely sky

Beyond Exit 333

The locals joke it's halfway to hell

There's no way to know for sure

Might be just as well

I'm headed up the river to the only home I've ever known

I may be going to hell someday

But I'm only halfway

Splittin' stove wood for the night

Under the porch light

And a billion stars blown across the sky

With my coat zipped to my chin

And that cold wind creeping in

But I don't feel like I fell from grace tonight

They say ol' Lucifer

Was God's beautiful angel

And Yellowstone has a lake of fire

If I'm out here in this wind to pay for all my sins

I'll still be here

When it feels like paradise

The locals joke it's halfway to hell

There's one way to know for sure

I guess time will tell

I'm headed up the river to the only home I've ever known

I may be going to hell someday

But I'm only halfway

Yeah the locals joke it's halfway to hell

It's where the heavens opened

And the angel fell

I'm headed up the river to the only home I've ever known

I may be going to hell someday

But I'm only halfway
