Nine years old and I skinned my knees

 They told me I'd be fine

Told me I'd be fine

 And the very next day I died

I loved a girl with a cold cold heart

Lord how I did pine

Lord how I did pine

 And the very next day I died

I graduated and I found a job

 That paid me over-time

 They paid me over-time

 And the very next day I died

I found true love and I married rich

 Then tears of joy I cried

 Then tears of joy I cried

 And the very next day I died

We bought a new house in the country

 Straight off the assembly line

 Straight off the assembly line

 And the very next day I died.

Spoiled our kids rotten

 Traded my whiskey in for wine

 My whiskey in for wine

 And the very next day I died

Then she left me for my brother

 Said he's gonna keep her satisfied

 Gonna keep her satisfied

 And the very next day I died

So I banged my fists on a coffin

 Sayin lord it aint my time

Lord it aint my time

 And the very next day I died

Now im at the pearly gates

Waiting in a long long line

Waiting in a long long line

 And I hope one day im gonna die
