Produced By: "T-Bone" Burnett & Elton John
2
[Verse 1]
3
I am the elder Utah Smith
4
I've got two wings to fly
5
They may be made of paper
6
They may never reach the sky
7
But I believe in mercy
8
I believe that man is good
9
And if they want two wings like me
10
There's a chance they could
11
[Verse 2]
12
I am the elder Utah Smith
13
I was born in Cedar Grove
14
That's in Louisiana
15
On a dirt-poor stretch of road
16
I found the calling early
17
Gave birth to righteous words
18
And in a tent around the South
19
I took my sonic church
20
[Chorus]
21
I was a light for the living
22
And I spoke of peace and love
23
With two wings and my old Gibson
24
I bought blessings from above
25
I was here and I was gone
26
Just a heartbeat from the past
27
But I went from paper wings
28
To the real thing at last
29
[Verse 3]
30
I am the elder Utah Smith
31
I take all as they are
32
I was the first man of the cloth
33
To blacken a guitar
34
Love was my redeemer
35
I felt it from the start
36
The Holy Ghost was channeled
37
Through the sound of my guitar
38
[Chorus]
39
I was a light for the living
40
And I spoke of peace and love
41
With two wings and my old Gibson
42
I bought blessings from above
43
I was here and I was gone
44
Just a heartbeat from the past
45
But I went from paper wings
46
To the real thing at last
47
[Verse 4]
48
Been a long time in the ground
49
Unmarked is my grave
50
But I reside elsewhere these days
51
Thanks to souls I've saved
52
I traveled far, I traveled wide
53
Three quarts for the Lord
54
Till one day he called me home
55
To claim his great reward
56
[Chorus]
57
I was a light for the living
58
And I spoke of peace and love
59
With two wings and my old GIbson
60
I bought blessings from above
61
I was here and I was gone
62
Just a heartbeat from the past
63
But I went from paper wings
64
To the real thing at last
65
I was a light for the living
66
And I spoke of peace and love
67
With two wings and my old GIbson
68
I bought blessings from above
69
I was here and I was gone
70
Just a heartbeat from the past
71
But I went from paper wings
72
To the real thing at last
