Gonna Come Back As A Country Song lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let me just say for the sake of conversation
If there's such a thing as reincarnation
Don't you go crying for me when I'm gone
'Cause I'm gonna come back as a country song

[Chorus]
I'll be playing all night in every honky tonk bar
In the middle of a fiddle and a steel guitar
I'm hoping when the good Lord calls me home
I'm gonna come back as a country song

[Verse 2]
And I'd have to say it'd be Heaven to me
Watching neon lights for eternity!
So go ahead and put it on my headstone
Yeah, I'm gonna come back as a country song

[Chorus]
I'll be playing all night in every honky tonk bar
In the middle of a fiddle and a steel guitar
I'm hoping when the good Lord calls me home
I'm gonna come back as a country song

[Verse 3]
So here I am on a stool tonight
Yeah, I'm practising up for the afterlife
'Cause when I'm nothing but a pile of bones
I'm gonna come back as a country song
[Chorus]
I'll be playing all night in every honky-tonk bar
In the middle of a fiddle and a steel guitar
I'm hoping when the good Lord calls me home
I'm gonna come back as a country song

[Outro]
I'm hoping when the good Lord calls me home
I'm gonna to come back as a country song
