Hallelujah Lyrics

I pointed north towards Kansas City
I thought I'd drive all night
I got oil in my gasoline
Smoke coming out my pipe

And every mile I leave behind me
Is like a hundred dollar bill
You know I might come back to get 'em
But I probably never will

Hallelujah
The road's my saving grace
Hallelujah
My home is not a place, not a place
Hallelujah, mmm
Wherever I may roam
You know I'm in the night right now
But the night is not my home

You know Jesus loves my mama
I guess he loves me too
But you know I'd like to ask him
What he thinks about the truth, mmm about the truth

And every mile I leave behind me
Is like wine running from my cup
'Cause when she left she cut a hole
I can't seem to fill up

Hallelujah
The road's my saving grace
Well hallelujah, mmm
My home is not a place, it's not a place
Hallelujah
Wherever I may roam, mmm
You know I'm in the night right now
But the night is not my home, not my home

(Instrumental)

Every mile I leave behind me
Is like wine running from my cup
'Cause when she left she cut a hole
I can't seem to fill up

Hallelujah
The road's my saving grace, mmm yeah
Hallelujah, mmm
My home is not a place
Hallelujah, mmm
Wherever I may roam
You know I'm in the night right now
But the night is not my home, not a home

You know I'm in the night right now
But the night is not my home

The Band of Heathens are an Americana band from Austin, Texas.

The three principal songwriters - Colin Brooks, Ed Jurdi and Gordy Quist - shared the bill at Momo's, an Austin club. Originally, each singer/songwriter performed his own set. However, they eventually started sharing the stage, and collaborating together with bassist Seth Whitney. The Wednesday night series was billed as "The Good Time Supper Club". A misprint in a local paper billed the act as "The Heathens." In 2007, drummer John Chipman joined the band.

In 2009, the band was nominated for a "New Emerging Artist" award by the Americana Music Association. In 2010, the band was again honored by the Americana Music Association as nominees for the "Best Duo/Group of the Year". Read more on Last.fm.
