Tailgates Of Heaven

[Verse 1]

I stopped by old man Dolby's store for cold ones on the way

We bagged 'em up and dropped 'em down out back, by our old place

It won't take long, a simple man's on somebody says your name

And I can't help but wonder if you're up there doin' the same

[Chorus]

Sippin' on a cold gold can

Reminiscin' with some long-lost friends

Blowin' smoke and jokin', laughin' 'bout the hell we raised down here

Do you ever get to kick it with The Man?

Did he tell you when he's comin' back again?

Does He sing along to Skynyrd on Elevеn on the Tailgates of Heavеn?

[Verse 2]

Well, almost everything in this old fire has burned before

Some midnight memories, black beer cans, and that bourbon bottle's yours

It's the same old boys, same old story stretchin' out the truth

We all know something's missin' and brother we all know it's you

[Chorus]

Sippin' on a cold gold can

Reminiscin' with some long-lost friends

Blowin' smoke and jokin', laughin' 'bout the hell we raised down here

Do you ever get to kick it with The Man?

Did he tell you when he's comin' back again?

Does He sing along to Skynyrd on Eleven on the Tailgates of Heaven?

[Post-Chorus]

On the Tailgates of Heaven

[Bridge]

Remember when we thought that nights like this would last forever?

Well I still believe they do, they just go down somewhere better

[Chorus]

Sippin' on a cold gold can

Reminiscin' with some long-lost friends

Blowin' smoke and jokin', laughin' 'bout the hell we raised down here

Do you ever get to kick it with The Man?

Did he tell you when he's comin' back again?

Does He sing along to Skynyrd on Eleven?

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah, tell Saint Pete to save me a seat

On the Tailgates of Heaven

On the Tailgates of Heaven

[Outro]

I stopped by old man Dolby's store for cold ones on the way

We bagged 'em up and dropped 'em down out back, by our old place
