Song Artist: Ed Bruce
Song Name: When I Die, Just Let Me Go To Texas
Tuning: E Standard (EADGBE)
When I die I may not go to heaven
I don t know if they let cowboys in
If they don t just let me go to Texas
Cause Texas is as close as I ve been
New York couldn t hold my attention
Detroit City couldn t sing my song
If tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas
I won t care cause at least I ll know I m home
When I die I may not go to heaven
I don t know if they let cowboys in
If they don t just let me go to Texas
Cause Texas is as close as I ve been
I d ride through all of Hell and half of Texas
Just to hear Merle Haggard sing a country song
Beer just ain t as cold in old Milwaukee
My body s here but my soul s in San Antone
When I die I may not go to heaven
I don t know if they let cowboys in
If they don t just let me go to Texas
Cause Texas is as close as I ve been
