Lyrics When I Get to Heaven - Jon Wolfe

When I Get to Heaven

I know heavens got a pearly gate someday I’ll be walking through
The streets are made of gold I hear the sun shines down each avenue
On every corner there’s a smiling face, not a soul with a troubled mind
Still I hope there’d be a place up there a guy like me can find
A steel guitar whinin', a lonesome fiddle cryin'
Neon softly shining over in a corner booth
So many nights that jukebox was my only friend
When I get to heaven will I ever hear a country song again
I was so far gone down a one-way track, a lost cause of a misspent youth
But I was born again by the dashboard sound of a three chord song with a ring
of truth
Now I’m not the man in charge I know it’s not my call
But surely you’ve got room enough for one little hole in the wall
With a steel guitar whinin', a lonesome fiddle cryin'
Neon softly shining over in a corner booth
So many nights that jukebox was my only friend
When I get to heaven will I ever hear a country song again
There’s not much here I’m gonna miss
Lord please forgive me if I wish
To take a few things with me when I go
Like a steel guitar whinin', a lonesome fiddle cryin'
Neon softly shining over in a corner booth
So many nights that jukebox was my only friend
When I get to heaven will I ever hear a country song again
When I get to heaven, I hope I hear those country songs again
