Die in a Bar
The bartender'll give my eulogy
Raise 'em up
'stead of pourin' 'em out for me
The bouncer in the back's
Already wearing black
When the time comes
He'll be ready
In lieu of flowers
tip the cover band
Make sure they play a little
Country Boy Can Survive, if I,
Don't make it through the night
I'll fly away on a whiskey river
Washed in the glow of a neon light
When it all goes dark
Want a beer in hand
When it's time to go
See a sawdust floor
'fore my eyes close
When the Good Lord stops
This honky tonk heart
I wanna die
I wanna die in a bar
When you swing on in
Them swinging doors
Leave that heartache out on the porch
My happy hour don't allow no tears
So dry 'em up
And fill your cups
I'll fly away on a whiskey river
Washed in the glow of a neon light
When it all goes dark
Want a beer in hand
When it's time to go
See a sawdust floor
'fore my eyes close
When the Good Lord stops
This honky tonk heart
I wanna die
I wanna die in a bar
I'll fly away on a whiskey river
Washed in the glow of a neon light
When it all goes dark
Want a beer in hand
When it's time to go
See a sawdust floor
'fore my eyes close
When the Good Lord stops
This honky tonk heart
I wanna die, I wanna die,
I wanna die in a bar
I wanna die in a bar
Raise 'em up
'stead of pourin' 'em out for me
The bouncer in the back's
Already wearing black
When the time comes
He'll be ready
In lieu of flowers
tip the cover band
Make sure they play a little
Country Boy Can Survive, if I,
Don't make it through the night
I'll fly away on a whiskey river
Washed in the glow of a neon light
When it all goes dark
Want a beer in hand
When it's time to go
See a sawdust floor
'fore my eyes close
When the Good Lord stops
This honky tonk heart
I wanna die
I wanna die in a bar
When you swing on in
Them swinging doors
Leave that heartache out on the porch
My happy hour don't allow no tears
So dry 'em up
And fill your cups
I'll fly away on a whiskey river
Washed in the glow of a neon light
When it all goes dark
Want a beer in hand
When it's time to go
See a sawdust floor
'fore my eyes close
When the Good Lord stops
This honky tonk heart
I wanna die
I wanna die in a bar
I'll fly away on a whiskey river
Washed in the glow of a neon light
When it all goes dark
Want a beer in hand
When it's time to go
See a sawdust floor
'fore my eyes close
When the Good Lord stops
This honky tonk heart
I wanna die, I wanna die,
I wanna die in a bar
I wanna die in a bar
