If I Ever Get To Heaven (I Won't See You)

(album: My Heart's In The Country - 1966)

(If I ever get to heaven
I won't see you)

You say that I'm no angel
But I don't claim to be
You say my life is ruin
But it was you that ruined me
Remember that I only did the things you told me to
And if I ever get to heaven
I won't see you

If I ever get to heaven
I have to let you go
If I don't
You'll be to blame 'cause I found out so low
The chances that I'll see those pearly gates are mighty few
If I ever get to heaven
I won't see you

You say you can't look up to me
The way you used to do
You say that I'll do do wrong
With others like I did with you
But how can you look down on me
You know I love you so
And when I'm in your arms
It's heaven
I can't say no
If I ever get to heaven...
