Just South of Heaven

from Neapolitan Man by Jordan Carr

/

  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Neapolitan Man is the by-product of bartender banter and quarantine. It acts as an experiment in which I let three different engineers produce and mix three of my very personal songs in their own way. The result was nerve racking yet exciting. Neapolitan Man started as one thing and ended up an exercise in trust and growth.

lyrics

I was born just south of Heaven
Out here on the darker side of spring
In this little town around nowhere
Anything was rarely happening
All of the trouble that I caught
Never seemed to matter all that much
I spent my youth in lockups
And trying not to get caught

I was hell for my mother
Nothing but trouble for my old man
Never much of an older brother
To the only sister I ever had
I always got told that I wasn’t right
And I’d lay up at night
I gave up my future
And I gave into the night

I gotta go

Used to drive all night to sunlight
One head light down I-69
Found a home on stranger’s floors
I don’t go home much no more
All the ladies of the night
I leave them all behind
There ain’t a thing that they can do for me
That’ll make me feel alive
If love ain’t in the cards for me this time around
Alright
And if love ain’t in the cards for me
Well alright

I was born just south of Heaven
I walk on the darker side of streets
Every little town I ever lived in
Cheered on the day they saw me leave
All of the trouble that I caught
Never seemed to matter all that much
I got out of lockup
And I’m still trying not to get caught

I gotta go

Used to riding high
Thin white lines
Never get caught
Never slow down
Three shades of grey
Any given day
Baby, you know
I’m a Neapolitan Man

I’m a Neapolitan Man
