Hillbilly Hell

Last night I dreamed I went to hillbilly hell

The devil stepped right up and he said

"Well you look so countrified, leave your hat and boots outside

You won't need 'em, you're in hillbilly hell.

Well, they had a band without a steel guitar

And not one good ol' girl stood at the bar

No jukebox and no beer, am I the only redneck here

And the parkin' lot, was full of foreign cars.

Hillbilly hell, I'm not feelin' so well

Where did I go wrong

Was it somethin' in my song

That put me in this hillbilly hell.

I asked the devil just what did I do

To have to sweat it out down here with you

To me it don't seem fair, why can't I be up there

With the rest, Marty, Hank and Patsy too.

He said, "You didn't write one good ol' gospel song

And not one little word about your mom

And you haven't yet, sang one single duet

With Willie Nelson and you know that's wrong.

Well, I woke up to a country station on my radio

Grabbed a pen and paper and the words began to flow

I wrote a song called God Bless Mom and ran out to the bus

Placed a call to Willie, Would you like to sing with us.

Hillbilly hell, I'm not feelin' so well

Where did I go wrong

Was it somethin' in my song

That put me in this hillbilly hell.

I dreamed I was in hillbilly hell...
