***LYRICS***

[CHORUS]

What happens when you die
Aww man don’t ya know
Heaven’s down a long backroad
Take your ol’ sweet time and drive it real slow
You don’t need directions when you’re headed back home
The sky opens up, the windows roll down
Your favorite song comes on the radio dial
You see life flash, you feel like a child
You park at the gates and you wave with a smile to get in

There’s a highway to hell
And a backroad to heaven

[VERSE]

Nine years old I was sitting on the porch
I had tears rolling down my eyes
Just a young little lost boy asking his momma
Why did grandpa have to die

Will I ever see him again is he coming on back
Is he gonna have trouble on the way
Then my big cousin took my hand sat me down
And I remember hearing him say/

There’s a reason why the stars light up in the sky
There’s a reason why the birds fly so damn high
There’s something up there, I said I guess your right, but

[CHORUS]

What happens when you die
Aww man don’t ya know
Heaven’s down a long backroad
Take your ol’ sweet time and drive it real slow
You don’t need directions when you’re headed back home
The sky opens up, the windows roll down
Your favorite song comes on the radio dial
You see life flash, you feel like a child
You park at the gates and you wave with a smile to get in

There’s a highway to hell
And a backroad to heaven

[VERSE]

Well life flew by now I’m old and grey
baby I’ve had such a good life
I got great grandkids and my family all around me
I don’t wanna leave, but it’s time

Just cuz I’m gone don’t mean that I left
I’ll always be right here in your heart
Ill be a star in the sky, just a bird flying high
Honey I’ll be your light in the dark

There’s a reason why I love you so damn much
There’s a reason why I can’t say that enough/
I promise I’ll see you again some day
Till then just believe me when I say/

[CHORUS]

What happens when you die
Aww man don’t ya know
Heaven’s down a long backroad
Take your ol’ sweet time and drive it real slow
You don’t need directions when you’re headed back home
The sky opens up, the windows roll down
Your favorite song comes on the radio dial
You see life flash, you feel like a child
You park at the gates and you wave with a smile to get in

There’s a highway to hell
And a backroad to heaven

Brother I understand everything your preaching in this song I lost my uncle and cousins 12 and 14 at age 9 obviously old enough to understand death and heaven I haven't collapsed like that until recently I lost my great grandpa one of my rocks I was lucky to have him in my life for 16 years I took a drive when I heard the news probably wasn't smart I held my foot on the gas of my Ole chevy on some backroad balling my eyes out this song came on andi had to pull over I really don't think I would be here rn without it

“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

Matthew 7:13‭-‬14

This songs speaks to me more than words.

3 lines from this song are going on my dog's memorial at my local animal shelter. Her name was Star and she left suddenly and way before her time.
"Just cause I'm gone don't mean that I left"
"Honey, I'll be your light in the dark"
"Theres a reason why the stars light up in the sky"
Rest In Peace Star, till i see ya again. Love ya pup

Great song loved listening to it driving threw the summer badlands in ND working that oilfield hitch

My dad died and I love to imagine him riding down some windy backroad and shooting at squirrels and chuckers all over, then showing up at the golden gates where he is let into the promised land
