[Verse 1] My grandpa taught me about buck knifes and shot guns How to cast an old Zebco And how to work a stick shift He taught me the bible about all twelve disciples And he made sure that I know there's life after this With pearly gates and streets of gold He said if I just believe that's where I'll go
[Chorus] Lord when I die I wanna live On the outskirts of Heaven Where there's dirt roads for miles Hay in the fields and fish in the river Where there's dogwood trees and honey bees And blue skies and green grass forever Lord when I die, I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven
[Verse 2] Now it says in the King James in the Almighty's kingdom He mentions a mansion that he's built just for me Now I'd gladly trade it for a farm house with acreage And a back yard that's shaded and a squeaky front porch swing That's where I wanna hang my wings
[Chorus] When I die I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven Where there's dirt roads for miles Hay in the fields and fish in the river Where there's dogwood trees and honey bees And blue skies and green grass forever So Lord when I die, I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven Yeah
[Outro] Yeah, the good Lord knows me He knows I need blue skies and green grass forever Lord when I die I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven Yeah, when I die I wanna live on the outskirts of HeavenTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
