I don´t go to funerals, I won´t be at mine I´ll be somewhere lookin´ back at loved ones left behind My life has been a wonder and I found my place in time
But I don´t go to funerals, I won´t be at mine
I´ll be somewhere singin´ songs with all those friends of mine Life is great, but I can´t wait to make our memories rhyme Now those who´ve gone before me will save my place in line I don´t go to funerals, I won´t be at mine
There´ll be a big ol´ pickin´ party when it comes my time Me and Waylon, John and Chris and our sweetheart Patsy Cline Merle and Grady and Freddy Powers, all those pals of mine But I don´t go to funerals, I won´t be at mine
Somewhere, I hear angel voices singin´ in the wind Sayin´ how it won´t be long ´til time to fly again Life is sweet and love is good and we have had a good time But I don´t go to funerals, I won´t be at mine
