the highwomen - heaven is a honky tonk lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
all my heroes are going to heaven
all the junkies and the liars and the fools
all good-timin’ men will leave their voices on the wind
it’s a kindness we cannot repay to them

[chorus]
there’s a choir singin’ in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band
there’s a “hallelujah!” on the lips of every dying man
mamas, don’t you cry when they’re dead and gone
jesus, he loves his sinners and heaven is a honky tonk

[verse 2]
i won’t say their names
they’ve been said enough in vain
[?] endless memories and the thousand years of smiles
the lines around your eyes
tell me you’re not far behind
but i can see the livin’ free was worth the while

[chorus]
there’s a choir singin’ in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band
there’s a “hallelujah!” on the lips of every dying man
mamas, don’t you cry when they’re dead and gone
jesus, he loves his sinners and heaven is a honky tonk

[verse 3]
happiness, they say
is a jukebox that always plays
and a lonesome heart ain’t lonely anymore
every soul [that dare?] p-ssed on
is now covered in neon
they dance with silver wings on wooden floors

[chorus]
there’s a choir singin’ in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band
there’s a “hallelujah!” on the lips of every dying man
mamas, don’t you cry when they’re dead and gone
jesus, he loves his sinners and heaven is a honky tonk
