lyrics

LIVIN’ IN HONKY TONK HELL

VERSE
YOU SMILE AND YOU WAVE LIKE YOU KNOW ME

BUT YOU DON’T REALLY KNOW WHO I AM

IN A LITTLE BEER JOINT OUTSIDE OF DETROIT

I’M GETTING WASTED WHILE I SING IN FRONT OF A HILLBILLY BAND

THE STAGE AND THE LIGHTS ARE THE BARS THAT CONFINE ME

AND I WON’T BE SET FREE FROM MY CELL

‘TIL I’M READY TO GO TO HILLBILLY HEAVEN

‘CAUSE I’M LIVIN’ IN HONKY TONK HELL

CHORUS
WHEN I GET TO HILLBILLY HEAVEN

THEY’RE GONNA KNOW WHO I AM

‘CAUSE MANY A NIGHT HAVE I TURNED OUT THE LIGHT

AND PRAYED TO BE UP THERE WITH THEM

WHERE A MAN CAN BE JUDGED FOR THE HIGHS THAT HE’S CLIMBED

AND NOT BY THE LOWS THAT HE FELL

AND I’M READY TO GO TO HILLBILLY HEAVEN

‘CAUSE I’M LIVIN’ IN HONKY TONK HELL

MUSICAL INTERLUDE ONE CHORUS

VERSE
NOW MISTER, IF YOU’LL BUY ME A COLD ONE

I’LL SING YOU A BEER DRINKIN’ SONG

YOU CAN TRY NOT TO CRY,

BUT THERE’LL BE A TEAR IN MY EYE

WHEN I SING ABOUT A LOVE AND A LIFE THAT WENT WRONG

REDEMPTION HAS ALWAYS BEEN ONE STEP BEHIND ME

AND THESE DAYS I AIN’T DOIN’ SO WELL

AND I’M READY TO GO TO HILLBILLY HEAVEN

‘CAUSE I’M LIVIN’ IN HONKY TONK HELL

BRIDGE
EVERY TIME I GET A BREAK, EVERYBODYS ONLY WAITIN’ TO SEE

HOW LONG IT’S GONNA BE TILL THE BOTTLE TAKES AHOLD AND KNOCKS THE HELL OUT

OF ME

CHORUS
WHEN I GET TO HILLBILLY HEAVEN

THEY’RE GONNA KNOW WHO I AM

‘CAUSE MANY A NIGHT HAVE I TURNED OUT THE LIGHT

AND PRAYED TO BE UP THERE WITH THEM

WHERE A MAN CAN BE JUDGED BY THE HIGHS THAT HE’S CLIMBED

AND NOT BY THE LOWS THAT HE FELL

AND I’M READY TO GO TO HILLBILLY HEAVEN

‘CAUSE I’M LIVIN’ IN HONKY TONK HELL
