Lyrics V1Lookin' for neon signs and a wooden floorTwo-steppin 'at the dancehallHillbilly music blaring out the doorWorkin' class folks drinkin 'til last callV2Jimmy, Earnest, and Patsy gave us that soundTonk piano, raw and grittyHank and George were hell boundStories 'bout a colorful forbidden cityNo question that's where I belongChorusWhen I reach honky tonk heavenAll my friends will be waiting for mePiano sounds I ain't forgettin'Two-beat rhythm with a crisp backbeatTraveled 'cross the south, that sound was spreadin'Came to life in the Grand Ole OpryPlayin' stepped up music in my honky tonk heavenMy friends are waiting for meIn honky tonk heavenV3Cowboys, outlaws, and some shady people hideIt's a game of chance each nightCome one, come all to the other sideHear those keys poundin' it feels alrightSo open up those pearly gatesChorusWhen I reach honky tonk heavenAll my friends will be waiting for mePiano sounds I ain't forgettin'Two-beat rhythm with a crisp backbeatTraveled 'cross the south, that sound was spreadin'Came to life in the Grand Ole OpryPlayin' stepped up music is my honky tonk heavenMy friends are waiting for meIn honky tonk heavenTagFeelin' young and free in honky tonk heaven
