Did you ever wander where old drunks go
When you get too old to drink anymore
Well I really don't know but I'd like to believe
Somewhere there's a place for drunks like me

But in a honky tonk heaven give me house with the swinging doors
And living room with a jukebox and a sawdust floor
Someday I'm gonna go there just you wait and see
If there's a honky tonk heaven for drunks like me

[ guitar ]
Don't get me wrong friend I'd like to live
The rest of my life for the thrill it gives
But I've run out of money and I've run out of town
Old age is about to turn my temper down

But in a honky tonk heaven give me house with the swinging doors
And living room with a jukebox and a sawdust floor
Someday I'm gonna go there just you wait and see
Cause in the honky tonk heaven the drinks are free
If there's a honky tonk heaven for drunks like me
