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 runnin' out

Down by one or could be tied

I'm fading back, winding up

The championship 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

Potholes filled up with 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 me up the hill

Or in my mirror just fade away? I've never been the kind a man who hits his knees be

Got no answers for big questions, well, I don't know

Maybe tomorrow lightning will hit me on the head

And we can find out if we're just a joke Oh, Jesus, I'm told, can build a bridge

Finer than any other man

There's a certain peace 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 85

Late one night turned out the lights

Would the stars still light the way? If there was a road to heaven

Made of gold or made of clay

Would the Angels lead me up the hill?

Or in my mirror just fade away? Night turns mornin', the old man should be snorin'

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 that I'd like to find
