Lyrics Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson

Gonna Come Back as a Country Song

Let me just say for the sake of conversation

If there's such a thing as reincarnation

Don't you go crying for me when I'm gone

Cause I'm gonna come back as a country song

I'll be playing all night in every honky tonk bar

In the middle of a fiddle and a steel guitar

I'm hoping when the good Lord calls me home

I'm gonna come back as a country song.

And I'd have to say it'd be Heaven to me

Watching neon lights for eternity!

So go ahead and put it on my headstone

Yeah, I'm gonna come back as a country song

I'll be playing all night in every honky tonk bar

In the middle of a fiddle and a steel guitar

I'm hoping when the good Lord calls me home

I'm gonna come back as a country song.

So here I am on a stool tonight

Yeah, I'm practicing up for the afterlife

Cause when I'm nothing but a pile of bones

I'm gonna come back as a country song.

I'll be playing all night in every honky tonk bar

In the middle of a fiddle and a steel guitar

I'm hoping when the good Lord calls me home

I'm gonna come back as a country song.
