"Hell Of A View" lyrics - ERIC CHURCH

I was no daddy's dream
Was not your momma's prayer
But I was your first and your
Last ticket out of there
I caught your wings on fire
When I smoked my bronco tires
Out of that town

I'm good at rollin' dice
No good at standin' still
You liked the thought of chasin'
Life instead of dollar bills
We were livin' wreckless
Nothin' to catch us, baby
But the ground

[Chorus:]
This ain't for everybody
Toes hangin' off the ledge
Like we got nothin' to lose
Ain't always Heaven, baby
This livin' on the edge
You holdin' me, holdin' you
It's a Hell of a view

I paint with my old Gibson
You paint your purple sky
This town's our canvas, baby
Let's paint it red tonight
Go out like shootin' stars
Chasin' what's in our hearts
Into the blue (Into the blue)

[Chorus:]
This ain't for everybody
Toes hangin' off the ledge
Like we got nothin' to lose
Ain't always Heaven, baby
This livin' on the edge
You holdin' me holdin' you
It's a Hell of a view
A Hell of a view

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus:]
We ain't for everybody
Toes hangin' off a ledge
Like we got nothin', we got nothin' to lose
Ain't always Heaven, baby
This livin' on the edge
You holdin' me, holdin' you
It's a Hell of a view

[Outro:]
A Hell of a view
A Hell of a view (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
A Hell of a view
