lyrics

When I go to meet my maker
I’m gonna bring a bag of ice
And a steel martini shaker
Whiskey and a lime

Cuz if I go to heaven
I always thought it would be nice
To grab myself a cloud and sit on down
And taste the Sour cherry citrus sky

I’d Pour a drink for old St. Peter
He’d pretend to be offended by the bribe
But He’d pull me aside with a wink and word to the wise
And say “hey here’s mud in your eye”

Chorus:
My love - if I leave without warning
At sunset fill a glass up with ice
And meet me on the porch I’ll be pouring
Whiskey and sour cherry citrus sky

Dogs afraid of the thunder
TVs on all night
I’d sit on my cloud and wonder
at the meaning of this life

Then I’d run and ask St. Peter
If he’d be kind enough to explain
He’d point to a sign that reads “enjoy” and then with a sigh
he'd say “cmon kid don’t be a pain”

Chorus:
Now I’m up - 4 o’clock in the morning
You’re gone - dog is barking outside
My love - if I leave without warning
Think I’d miss this more than I’d like
To taste whiskey sour cherry citrus skies
