Lookin' for neon signs and a wooden floor Texas two-steppin 'at the dancehall Twangy music blaring out the door Workin' class folks drinkin 'til last call When I reach honky tonk heaven I pray my friends will be waiting for me Heartbreak songs we ain't forgettin' Last call goes on for eternity In honky tonk heaven Patsy and Ernest gave us that true blue sound Tonk piano rowdy, raw, and gritty Hank and George you're on sacred ground Sayin' hello darlin' to Conway Twitty When I reach honky tonk heaven I pray my friends will be waiting for me Heartbreak songs we ain't forgettin' Last call goes on for eternity In honky tonk heaven Cowboys, outlaws, and some shady people hide It's a game of chance each and every night Come one, come all to the other side Hear those keys poundiin' it feels alright It feels alright, alright [Instrumental bridge] When I reach honky tonk heaven I pray my friends will be waiting for me Heartbreak songs we ain't forgettin' Last call goes on for eternity In honky tonk heaven Feelin' young and free in honky tonk heaven
