    Backstory:
    90's sounding traditional country written from the perspective that we may not all be good enough for "Heaven", but maybe there's a "Lesser Heaven" waiting for us.                 

    Lyrics:
                                                      
    It’s been a while since I’ve been to church I know But I don’t think that means I’ve lost my soul At times I’m on the fringes of the fold But I don’t think I’m doomed for down below Cause I try to find my way with grace each day that’s given me With a smile on my face in spite of the weight of responsibility I know I’m far from a perfect man, that I will concede But I believe there’s a lesser heaven For a man like me I confess I’ve given in to temptation But I don’t think that means I’ll lose salvation Cause upon a righteous full examination I don’t think I'm headed for damnation Cause I try to find my way with grace each day that’s given me With a smile on my face in spite of the weight of responsibility I know I’m far from a perfect man, that I will concede But I believe there’s a lesser heaven For a man like me I'll never leave this earth a perfect man, but when my life's complete I believe there'll be a lesser heaven For a man like me
