Lyrics:
I Hope Heaven Is A Small Town
(Written by: Bill Ferguson & Rick Lane)
VERSE:
The roots run deep on these family trees
Like the ones that line these small town streets
A modern day Mayberry might be all you see
But it's real and it's home and it's a part of me
You don't have to be rich or famous
Everyone 'round here they know what your name is
With a whole lotta hugs and friendly faces
No one ever leaves, but who could blame 'em
CHORUS:
This is heaven on Earth, God surely blessed it
There must be this kind of place in Heaven
We call it God's country for a reason
There's a place like this up there, I believe it
When I'm passin' through to the other side
I hope the light I see is that one traffic light
That leads me to this piece of sacred ground
I hope Heaven is a small town
VERSE:
I hope that traffic light is always green
And my childhood dog's there waitin' on me
Stop at Roger's Corner for homemade ice cream
Then throw rocks at a train crossin' Main Street
I wanna listen all day to my Grandpa's stories
Sittin' there in his same porch swing
Sneak a sip of his beer like I was fourteen
And laugh as Grandma rolls her eyes towards me
CHORUS:
CHORUS:
