"Heaven Right Now" lyrics

"Heaven Right Now"

The fish are finally biting
At the cut out on the Caney
Your daddy's still fixing motors
And a good guy married Macy
It's still a religion 'round here
We crack a cold beer and raise 'em up
To every Tennessee touchdown
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now

They still ain't paved that road
On lower Lickton Pike
I still look for your truck sometimes
At Sonic on Friday night
It still punch the dashboard hurts
Every time I hear Eric Church
Sing Sinners Like Me
I crank it up real loud
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now

Are you fishing? Are you flying?
How much greener is the grass?
Are you older, are you younger?
Or did time stop in its tracks?
Anyway, thought I'd say hey
I just made my way past your momma's house
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now

I still play this old guitar
But the crowds have gotten bigger
My kids have never met you
But they all know you from pictures
When the whole crew gets together
Memory lane goes on forever
We twist a top and pour a little Jack D out
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now

Are you fishing? Are you flying?
How much greener is the grass?
Are you older? are you younger?
Have you met Johnny Cash?
Anyway, thought I'd say hey
It's getting late and I'm putting these babies down
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now, yeah
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now

Yeah, Lauren still wears your bracelet
And people still ask about it
It's been everywhere I've been
'Cause I don't go nowhere without it
Yeah I missed church last week
Could you put in a word for me
If you and God get to hanging out
I look forward to catching up
When my time comes around
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now (Heaven right now)
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now (Heaven right now)
I wonder what you're doing in heaven right now (Heaven right now)
(Heaven right now)

"Heaven Right Now" was inspired by a tragic death of a friend of Thomas Rhett and his wife Lauren. The friend and Lauren lived just across the street and knew each other since childhood. "They were like brother and sister, you know?" Rhett shared. "I just noticed that there were certain things in my life that made me think about him. Whether I'm driving by certain landmarks that I used to see him at, I just noticed that he's still here in spirit. Every day, I'm reminded of him."
