WHISKEY HEAVEN
As sung by Fats Domino on "Blueberry Hill" (2004)

Ev'ry afternoon when I wake up,
I say a little prayer and drink up,
And thank the Lord for drivin' me home once more.
There's an open Bible on the table,
An' a empty bottle on the floor.
Last night I thought I'd died and went to whiskey heaven.

CHORUS: You know the sun never shines in whiskey heaven.
It rains Jack Daniel's all the time.
They're the price you pay: hangovers ev'ry day,
Flyin' high with honky-tonk angels in whiskey heaven.

There's a run-down bar open all night
Where me an' my friends can get tight
Underneath those neon lights in whiskey heaven.
We drink a little beer and wine,
Stay drunk most of the time.
We're always raisin' hell all night in whiskey heaven.

CHORUS
Flyin' high with honky-tonk angels in whiskey heaven,
Flyin' high with honky-tonk angels in whiskey heaven.
