Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox (If I Die) - Joe Diffie

Well, I ain't afraid of dying, it's the thought of being dead I wanna go on being me once my eulogy's been read Don't spread my ashes out to sea, don't lay me down to rest You can put my mind at ease if you fill my last request Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Lord, I wanna go to Heaven, but I don't wanna go tonight Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Just let my headstone be a neon sign Just let it burn in memory of all of my good times Fix me up with a mannequin, just remember I like blondes I'll be the life of the party even when I'm dead and gone So prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Lord, I wanna go to Heaven, but I don't wanna go tonight Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Just make your next selection And while your still in line You can pay your last respects One quarter at a time So prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Lord, I wanna go to Heaven, but I don't wanna go tonight Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Lord, I wanna go to Heaven, but I don't wanna go tonight Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand And prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Oh, prop me up beside the jukebox if I die Joe!

Some people never love Some keep a chain of withered hearts Some leave a trail of lovers Like old abandoned cars Me, I've lit a thousand candles Flame of hope at both ends Waiting for someone who Never did come back again Said a prayer And there was you You lay your cool cross Across this blistered heart You turned a light on In a corner that's always been dark You loved me when I was not kind When my soul was fire and ice You pointed out the diamonds That only felt like stones to me Said a prayer And there was you Be the last thing these eyes see When I am called from this earth Be the kiss that testifies Louder than final words Be the air I cling to when I leave Then my final prayer will be One more look, one more taste, one more breath Some people count their money Some people count their friends Some just collect their tears In pillows where all their dreams end Moments are my silver Days are my best companion Years are sweeter than dreams When every one is given To a prayer, and you Be the last thing these eyes see When I am called from this earth Be the kiss that testifies Louder than final words Be the air I cling to when I leave Then my final prayer will be One more look, one more taste, one more breath One more look, one more taste, one more breath

Man that smells good! I can't get rich; I can't make a living, But I sure do something for the neighborhood women. I wake up every morning with em knocking at my door; You can't keep 'em waiting when they're begging for more. "Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound, "You're supposed to keep 'em from coming around!" I used to think they were after me But they're just after my recipe, for Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, I said Good brown gravy, Mmm, good brown gravy Well, you can sop it with a biscuit, you can eat it from a pan, You can lick it off your fingers when it's running down your hand. If I could get a backer I could cause a big commotion. I could put it on the market, call it "Biscuit Lotion." "Back! Back!" I hollered to my hound, "You're supposed to keep 'em from coming around!" I used to think they were after me But they're just after my recipe, for Good brown gravy, good brown gravy, I said Good brown gravy, Mmm, good brown gravy Well, Granny told my momma 'bout the power that it had; Good Brown Gravy is the way she got my dad.
