When I Get To Heaven

(album: Natural Man - 2015)

I know heavens got a pearly gate someday I'll be walking through
The streets are made of gold I hear the sun shines down each avenue
On every corner there's a smiling face, not a soul with a troubled mind
Still I hope there'd be a place up there a guy like me can find

A steel guitar whining, a lonesome fiddle crying
Neon softly shining over in a corner booth
So many nights that jukebox was my only friend
When I get to heaven will I ever hear a country song again

I was so far gone down a one-way track, a lost cause of a misspent youth
But I was born again by the dashboard sound of a three chord song with a ring of truth
Now I'm not the man in charge I know it's not my call
But surely you've got room enough for one little hole in the wall

With a steel guitar whining, a lonesome fiddle crying
Neon softly shining over in a corner booth
So many nights that jukebox was my only friend
When I get to heaven will I ever hear a country song again

There's not much here I'm gonna miss
Lord please forgive me if I wish
To take a few things with me when I go

Like a steel guitar whining, a lonesome fiddle crying
Neon softly shining over in a corner booth
So many nights that jukebox was my only friend
When I get to heaven will I ever hear a country song again

When I get to heaven, I hope I hear those country songs again
