Sometimes I think about silly things, it's easy to do if you have the time
It often happens when I'm falling off to sleep after a second glass of wine
The clock is usually running out, down by one or could be tied
I'm fading back, I'm winding up, the championship's on the line
But what if there was a road to heaven, that's what came to me today
Would there be traffic jams with diamond lanes
Pot holes filled up rain? Would there be tolls still left to pay
If there was a road to heaven Made of gold or made out of clay
Would the angels wave up the hill or in my mirror just fade away
I've never been the kinda man who hits his knees babe
Got no answers for big questions, well, I don't know.
Ah, maybe tomorrow lightning will hit me on the head
And we can find out if we're just a joke
Now, Jesus I'm told can build a bridge finer than any other man
There's a certain piece to a country road with a wheel in your hand
If there was a road to heaven would there be laws I must obey
If I drove my Mustang eighty-five
late one night turn out the lights, would the stars still light the way
If there was a road to heaven Made of gold or made out of clay
Would the angels wave up the hill or in my mirror just fade away
Night turns to morning the old man should be snoring I got to get some sleep before I'm awake
Up with the monkeys, I sure love the monkeys, but this job ain't all cookies and cake
Sometimes I think about silly things. It's easy to do if you got the wine
In the Eagle we're landing. I'm the President or a foreign king with a harem from Encino to Brunei
But if there was a road to heaven it'd be one long and crazy ride
If there was a road to heaven, babe, that's a road I'd like to find
