    Lyrics
    LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN (dedicated to all the 9-11 victims and their families)

    There I was in the middle of nowhere
    with the sun beating down on me
    The dusty road was swirling 'round my feet
    and there was no sign of the city.

    I didn't have a bag or suitcase
    just some papers in a rubberband
    and I met a man standing by an iron gate
    with a Mint Julep in one hand.

    And he said, "Welcome to your little piece of heaven.
    C'mon in and make yourself at home.
    This is your little piece of heaven, child.
    C'mon in, you're surely not alone."

    "This is your piece, your piece, your little piece of heaven."

    Behind him was an ol' Southern mansion
    with white pillars rising high.
    And an old man sat in a rocking chair
    and he reached out and put his hand on mine.

    He said,"We've been a bit busy lately
    so please excuse me if I doze.
    Upstairs you have a room waiting
    with a cool bath and a change of clothes."

    "And welcome to your little piece of heaven.
    C'mon in and make yourself at home.
    This is your little piece of heaven, dear.
    C'mon in, you're surely not alone."

    "This is your piece, your piece, your little piece of heaven."

    (bridge)

    I joined the others on the grounds
    under a canopy of trees
    One man said, "This is the life."
    I have to say that I agreed.

    People were reading, talking, napping;
    days were calm without a care
    The old man came up to me
    and spoke, pulling up a chair

    And he said, "Welcome to the peace you'll find in heaven
    far from the madness back at home
    This is your peace, your place in heaven
    God knows, you're surely not alone."

    "This is your piece, your piece, your little piece of heaven.
    This is your peace, the peace, the peace you'll find in heaven.
    This is your peace, the peace, the peace you'll find in heaven.
    This is your piece, your piece, your little piece of heaven."
