Closer To Heaven
I don’t like hummus, I hate long lines
Nosey neighbors and Venetian blinds
Chirpy news anchors alter my mood
I’m offended by buzzwords like awesome and dude
I look like a train wreck I feel like a blob
Til you get to know me you may think I’m a snob
But I’m closer to heaven than I’ve ever been
I don’t eat sushi I don’t smoke grass
I don’t wear pajama’s I don’t drive fast
I hate idle gossip and wing tip shoes
Slick politicians give me the blues
I don’t like limo’s I don’t play golf
I don’t own a rifle that will blow your head off
But I’m closer to heaven than I’ve ever been
I’m riding the wave from cradle to grave
I’m learning to feel my hands on the wheel
I love my friends I love my wife
My four little babies are the light of my life
I love Sissy Spacek I love Guy Clark
All the biscuits and gravy I can eat with a fork
I don’t want to be famous who gives a damn
I just want to be happy wherever I am
And I’m closer to heaven than I’ve ever been
I’m closer to heaven than I’ve ever been
