Lyrics

I can hear my daughters crying, I'm wondering why
And I can feel their mother's touch, she hugging me tight
I've danced with the devil more than just a couple of times
So why you all so surprised? You telling me to open my eyes but open yours
And see my life's full of scars and newly opened sores
Blood, sweat, tears and dirt buried in my open pores
Eighty-eight years is longer than I was hoping for
How'd I get here? I'm standing outside the golden doors
Lord, can you hear me? Sorry, I think you made a mistake
I know I don't deserve a thing beyond these heavenly gates
And don't believe in excuses, these were the choices I made
But Lord, before I left, I heard my daughter say she's afraid
That I ain't going to heaven, that I'll be trapped on the Earth
Or down there with my brethren and the worst of the worst
But honestly, I don't care, it's whichever you prefer
I know what I deserve
You can take me straight to hell
I know the place very well
No need to point me to my cell
Just leave a Bud Light on the shelf
You know me, Lord, I like to drink
And I can handle all the pain
I've never been the type to pray
But could you do this one thing?
Please take care of my daughters and help them take care of their mother
If it ain't too much a bother, could you tell her that I love her?
Please let them know it was enough, I know they don't feel like it was
Need to remind them to be tough just like their daddy was
I don't believe in second chances, you can turn down my advances
Lord, forgive me for the damage I caused my body and my family
The liquor helped me manage when life had became a challenge
I know that you understand me, there's wine in your holy chalice
But I took it too far, I'd broken my daughter's hearts
Their daddy was never there, he was somewhere drunk at the bar
And father, you knew I cared, but they didn't know that at all
Lord, I regret it, I swear, I wish I could say I'm sorry
If you were to let me in, I'd watch over them night and day
But regardless of where you send me, I'm going to find a way
Lord, I love you, I always have, I'm hoping that you can hear me
If not, I understand sincerely
You can take me straight to hell
I know the place very well
No need to point me to my cell
Just leave a Bud Light on the shelf
You know me, Lord, I like to drink
And I can handle all the pain
I've never been the type to pray
But could you do this one thing?
