Imagine being so in love with your roots that even paradise doesn't compare. Hank Williams, Jr. sings about his deep connection to the Southern lifestyle, especially Alabama and Tennessee. He paints a picture of heaven needing to have the same charm and culture as Dixie for him to feel at home there. From the Grand Ole Opry to southern belles, he values these aspects so much that he'd rather stay on Earth or even go somewhere less desirable if heaven lacks them. 🌾 This song is a heartfelt tribute to Southern pride and the simple joys of country living.
If Heaven Ain't A Lot Like Dixie
Lyrics
If ain't a lot like Dixie
I don't wanna go
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I'd just as soon stay home
I was one of the chosen few
To be born in Alabam'
I'm just alike my daddy's son
I'm proud of who I am
I went through a lot of good women
And shook old Jim Beam's hand
If I never see the pearly gates
I've walked through the promised land
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I don't wanna go
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I'd just as soon stay home
If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry
Like they do in Tennessee
Just send me to Hell or New York City
It would be about the same to me
I've got wild honey trees and crazy little weeds
Growin' around my shack
These dusty roads ain't streets of gold
But I'm a happy right where I'm at
All these pretty little southern belles
Are a country boy's dream
They ain't got wings or halos
But they're sure looking good to me
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I don't wanna go
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I'd just as soon stay home
If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry
Like they do in Tennessee
Just send me to Hell or New York City
It would be about the same to me
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I don't wanna go
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I'd just as soon stay home
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I don't wanna go
If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie
I'd just as soon stay home
If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry
Like they do in Tennessee
Just send me to Hell or New York City
It would be about the same to me
