A Little Like Heaven

Well, it was out on payne’s prarie where I got my first kiss
There’s the schoolyard where we would play as kids
We pulled arrowheads out of hogtown creek
And when the cops came around, we’d all hide our drinks

Where I come from
It’s a little like heaven
And I can’t stay gone too long
Where I come from
Where I come from
Yeah (yeah)

We could waterski out on melrose bay
We could wear flip-flops on Christmas day
Yeah, and when we had enough cash for gasoline
Then we would all skip school and go to crescent beach

Yeah, where I come from
It’s a little like heaven
And I can’t stay gone too long
Where I come from
Where I come from
Yeah

There’s the old graveyard where my loved ones lie
And the church still stands where I was baptized
It’s the place I go when I can’t think clear
So when my time is up, please bring me back here

Back to where I come from
Cause it’s a little like heaven
And I can’t stay gone too long
Where I come from

Yeah, where I come from (where I come from)
It’s a little like heaven, yeah
And I can’t stay gone too long
Where I come from (where I come from)
Where I come from (I come from)
