Sweet Heaven When I Die

Beefsteaks when I'm hungry

Whiskey when I'm dry

Greenbacks when I'm hard up

Sweet heaven when I die

When I was down in that old jailhouse

My friends all walking by

Nobody come down to see about me

And I couldn't help but wonder why

Beefsteaks when I'm hungry

Whiskey when I'm dry

Greenbacks when I'm hard up

Sweet heaven when I die

Pappy was a rambling man

And he gambled from town to town

I'm a-gonna be a rambler, boys

Ain't never gonna settle down

Beefsteaks when I'm hungry

Whiskey when I'm dry

Greenbacks when I'm hard up

Sweet heaven when I die

Love me when I'm sad and blue

Honey, cheer me when I cry

For all I need is a pretty little girl

To love me 'til the day I die

Beefsteaks when I'm hungry

Whiskey when I'm dry

Greenbacks when I'm hard up

Sweet heaven when I die
