Heart up in the Sky |
| Well ol' Joe woke up at a quarter to five |
| Cause the girls needed milkin' or else they go dry |
| He’d done it for 45 years so it was no surprise |
| Till he walked outside and seen that heart up in the sky |
| Well it was forty feet up and it was ten feet wide |
| It was pumping like a mad man swept up in the tide |
| And when his wife she came out from the inside |
| She fell to her knees and she almost died |
| Well it shined like a quarter in a baby’s hand |
| On the fourth of July near the Rio Grande |
| It shined like a diamond in a jar of sand |
| And it made Joe’s cornfield look like it was born again |
| I put my heart up in the sky |
| I pushed it way up high |
| I just wondered what the people’d do |
| If they’d see my heart up there in the blue |
| I put my heart up in the sky |
| I can’t really tell you why |
| I just wondered what the people’d do |
| If they’d see my heart up there in the blue |
| Well he reached for his heart, like to have him a stroke |
| And he called for his wife who thought it was just some kind of joke |
| Like when he called the preacher up cause the hen’s laid triple yokes |
| But up in the sky was a heart that was taller than an oak |
| I put my heart up in the sky |
| And I pushed it way up high |
| I just wondered what the people’d do |
| If they’d see my heart up there in the blue |
| I put my heart up in the sky |
| I can’t really tell you why |
| I just wondered what the people’d do |
| If they’d see my heart up there in the blue |
| Well the first thing they did was get the paper on the wire |
| And they had their son paged, he was a contractor for hire |
| And they called their estranged daughter, she fell in love with a man from the |
| Ozark mire |
| And a bus pulled up with the entire First Presbyterian choir |
| They had a doctor called in from town |
| He showed up in a Chevy with a black bag and a frown |
| Said there’s nothing you could do to bring that heart back down |
| It was a healthy heart that Old Joe found |
| I put my heart up in the sky |
| And I pushed it way up high |
| I just wondered what the people’d do |
| If they’d see my heart up there in the blue |
| I put my heart up in the sky |
| I can’t really tell you why |
| I just wondered what the people’d do |
| If they’d see my heart up there in the blue |
