Heaven Is A Honky Tonk
(专辑: The Highwomen - 2019)
All my heroes are going to Heaven All the
junkies and the
liars and the
fools All good-timing men will leave their voices on the
wind It's a
kindness we cannot repay to them There's a
choir singing in a
southern accent, a
fiddle in the
band There's a
"Hallelujah!" on the
lips of every dying man Mama, don't you cry when they're dead and gone Jesus, he loves his sinners and Heaven is a
honky-tonk I
won't say their names They've been said enough in vain Just the
memory and the
thousand years of smiles The
lines around your eyes Tell me you're not far behind But I
can see that living free was worth the
while There's a
choir singing in a
southern accent, a
fiddle in the
band There's a
"Hallelujah!" on the
lips of every dying man Mama, don't you cry when they're dead and gone Jesus, he loves his sinners and Heaven is a
honky-tonk Happiness, they say, is a
jukebox that always plays And a
lonesome heart ain't lonely anymore Every soul that dared passed on is now covered in neon They dance with silver wings on wooden floors There's a
choir singing in a
southern accent, a
fiddle in the
band There's a
"Hallelujah!" on the
lips of every dying man Mama, don't you cry when they're dead and gone Jesus, he loves his sinners and Heaven is a
honky-tonk
