Jon Bon Jovi - Santa Fe Lyrics

Artist: Jon Bon Jovi

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Jon Bon Jovi

They say that no man is an island
And good things come to those who wait
The things are here or there just to remind me
Every dollar has its green

The spirits, they intoxicate me
I watched them infiltrate my soul
They try to say, it's too late for me
Tell my guns, I'm coming home

I swear I'm gonna live forever
Tell my maker he can wait
I'm riding somewhere south of heaven
Heading back to Santa Fe
It's judgment day in Santa Fe

Once I was promised absolution
There's only one solution for my sins
You gotta face your ghosts and know with no illusions
That only one of you is going home again

And I blame this world for making a good man evil
It's this world that can drive a good man mad
And it's this world that turns a killer into a hero
Well, I blame this world for making a good man bad

Now I ain't getting into heaven
If the devil has his way
I swear I'm gonna live forever
Heading back to Santa Fe

Got debts to pay in Santa Fe
It's judgment day in Santa Fe

Lord, have mercy

So I save a prayer when I need it most
To the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
I'll sign it from a sinner with no name

When I meet my maker, will he close the book
On the hearts I broke and the lives I took
Will he walk away 'cause my soul's, it's too late to save

Now I ain't getting into heaven
If the devil has his way
I swear I'm gonna live forever
Heading back to Santa Fe

I got debts to pay in Santa Fe
It's judgment day in Santa Fe
