I hope I die in Sedgwick County
On a cold and wet October
Turn the earth over
Lay me in
Lay me in

I hope you make the drive up
Hope it breaks your shitty car
Hope you bring your guitar
Sing about what little worms we are
How the rapture saves us all

Honey, I dunno if I believe in heaven
In my head, it's always dark and bare
Honey, I can't think of an afterlife worth livin'
When in your heaven I know I ain't there
When in your heaven I know I ain't there

And if I cry it's for the small things
Two beers on a Wednesday night
Church songs in the firelight

If you sing, sing for the big thing
Hangin' over our heads
That the best you've done is love
And it still ends up dead

They're gonna drag me up to heaven
For to see old Saint Peter
In nothin' but a wife-beater
Tell him what I done
What I done

I'm gonna fight with all the angels
Get drunk in heaven's bars
Sayin' goodbye's too hard
They'll cut me off
They'll cut me off

Honey, I dunno if I believe in heaven
In my head, it's always dark and bare
Honey, I can't think of an afterlife worth livin'
When in your heaven I know I ain't there
When in your heaven I know I ain't there

And if I cry it's for the small things
One summer spent hitchin'
Sweet kisses in the kitchen

If you sing, sing for the big thing
Hangin' over our heads
That the best you've done is love
And it still ends up dead
Honey, I dunno if I believe in heaven
In my head, it's always dark and bare
Honey, I can't think of an afterlife worth livin'
When in your heaven I know I ain't there
When in your heaven I know I ain't there
