Well, if upon that day I die

I'm too drunk to walk let alone to drive

And I'm kickin' and I'm spittin' like I'm wild and feral

Won't you take me to heaven in a wheelbarrow?

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven, yes sir

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

So won't you take me there?

Well, you can go on your gold steed

Or up on an angel's wings with speed

Or even in a pyramid like a pharaoh

But I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

There's a gal on the wrong side of town

Who gets me up when I'm goin' down

She keeps me in line, shootin' straight and narrow

Now she's taking me to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven, yes sir

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

So won't you take me there?

Well, I met woman with a cold heart

Tried to take me to hell in a shopping cart

Said, woman, you're putting my soul in peril

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven, yes sir

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

So won't you take me there?

A lot of men don't stand so tall

Most of us, you know we gotta fall

Some are lookin' life down a shotgun barrel

But I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven, yes sir

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

So won't you take me there?

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

I'm going to heaven, yes sir

I'm going to heaven in a wheelbarrow

So won't you take me there?
