Peggy came to me in my sleep
In the middle of the night on a Friday night last week
She whispered hush child and don’t be scared
I got me a few words of wisdom that I came back to share
And she said:

Chorus
It doesn’t matter where you come from
It matters where you go
No one gets remembered
For the things they didn't do

I said Peggy won't you stay here for a while?
We can drink whiskey, we can play cards and we can get wild
She said we'll play poker and we'll play for keeps
I only played angels lately and they never let me cheat

Chorus:
It doesn’t matter where you come from
It matters where you go
No one gets remembered
In this listless life
For the things they didn't do

You could say I had a good time, you could say I had class
You could say that I was born beneath this ceiling made of glass

But I always kept an open house
And yeah always did right by my friends
When it comes to Saint Peter's gate
I tell the people remember one who needs to make amends

Cause better times are coming
Better times ahead
No one gets remembered
My deathless child, don't waste too long in bed
And Peggy said:

Chorus
It doesn’t matter where you come from
It matters where you go
No one gets remembered
In this listless, loveless life
For the things they didn't do
Now, now, now, now, now.

And Peggy sang the blues
As I drifted off
Peggy sang the blues
As I drifted off
Well Peggy sang the blues
As I drifted off
Well Peggy sang the blues
Peggy sang the blues...
