Gloryland Lyrics by Old Crow Medicine Show
Woke up in a fever to a world gone wrong
Lord will this nightmare never end?
Scenes of ruination everywhere I go
Locked out at the gates of Gloryland
Shots in the alley, blood down the hall
Every inch of ground is a barrow land
A lost tribe of strangers scratching at the door
Locked out at the gates of Gloryland
Locked out just knocking at the gates of Gloryland
Stuck out in the wilderness again
Have mercy Saint Peter, won’t you hurry up and let us in
‘Cause we’re locked out knocking at the gates of Gloryland
People going crazy, whole world’s insane
And it’s getting hotter, I’ll be damned
Flood water rising with poison rain
Locked out at the gates of Gloryland
Locked out just knocking at the gates of Gloryland
Stuck out in the wilderness again
Have mercy Saint Peter, won’t you hurry up and let us in
‘Cause we’re locked out knocking at the gates of Gloryland
Oh, there’s a raging fever going around
Leaving only footprints in the sand
And every man’s a prisoner doing his own time
Locked out at the gates of Gloryland
Locked out just knocking at the gates of Gloryland
Stuck out in the wilderness again
Have mercy Saint Peter, won’t you hurry up and let us in
‘Cause we’re locked out knocking at the gates of Gloryland
‘Cause we’re locked out knocking at the gates of Gloryland
