"Heaven Is A Honky Tonk" lyrics

"Heaven Is A Honky Tonk"

Yeah, they say neon's only good for knockin' boots one time
And Evan Williams kills you faster than a .45
God made Sunday mornings 'cause of Saturday nights
Yeah, mama told me nothing good ever happens in the dark
But everybody dancing here in this dusty bar
Has seen the light a couple times, the Lord knows it's paradise

If I reach those pearly gates
I bet they'll look like swingin' doors
If these boots walk streets of gold
They'll be worn good, hardwood, sawdust floors
All the angels singing with pedal steel guitars
And fiddles to a Skynyrd song
Yeah, even the devil knows that heaven is a honky tonk

There won't be a last call, they won't shut it down
It's always top tier free beer all year round
Always a good crowd, house band's playing loud
It's a come one, come all, hole-in-the-wall holy ground

If I reach those pearly gates
I bet they'll look like swingin' doors
If these boots walk streets of gold
They'll be worn good, hardwood, sawdust floors
All the angels singing with pedal steel guitars
And fiddles to a Haggard song
Yeah, even the devil knows that heaven is a honky tonk
Oh, oh
Heaven is a honky tonk, yeah, hey

Heaven is a honky tonk
Heaven is a dive bar
Baptized in neon light
Heaven is right where we are

If I reach those pearly gates
I bet they'll look like swingin' doors
If these boots walk streets of gold
They'll be worn good, hardwood, sawdust floors
All the angels singing with pedal steel guitars
And fiddles to a Conway song
Yeah, even the devil knows that heaven is a honky tonk
Yeah, even the devil knows that heaven is a honky tonk
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Heaven is a honky tonk

Yeah, yeah
One, two, three, hey
