Hey, St. Peter Lyrics By Flash And The Pan

    the morning was cold and lonely
    city lights old and gray
    the sun arose and trying to smile
    gave it all away
    the honkytonk called a stranger
    the stranger couldn’t pay the bill
    made a stand raised his hand
    sang a song no time to kill

    i said hey hey hey st peter
    i’ve got a tale to tell
    i’ve just been down in new york town
    it really feels like hell
    it really feels like hell

    billy was out of fashion
    manhattan was years ago
    yesterday he wasted time
    money was kind of slow
    billy had friends of glory
    billy was a friend of fame
    took a chance and raised his hand
    sang a song now he’s back in the game

    i said hey hey hey st peter
    i’ve got a tale to tell
    i’ve just been down in new york town
    it really feels like hell hell
    it really feels like hel

    i said hey hey hey hey hey st peter
    hey hey hey hey hey st peter
    hey hey hey hey hey st peter
    it really feels like hell hell
    it really feels like hell

    hey st peter
    before you ring your bell
    just been down in new york town
    done my time in hell
    done my time in hell

    i said hey hey hey hey hey st peter
    hey hey hey hey hey st peter
    hey hey hey hey hey st peter
    it really feels like hell hell
    it really feels like hell hell
    it really feels like
    hell
