There\'s not much to this life of mine
No adventures or fame, but no petty crimes
there\'s only a path of broken dreams
and it\'s all coming to a close it seems
there\'ll be plenty of dry eyes once I pass
A man who spent his life at the bottom of a glass
don\'t pity me, it\'s better than you think
I\'m happy so long as I have one more drink
I hope there\'s a hell in heaven
for people like me
A hell in heaven, guess we\'ll see
I\'ve not left a trail of broken hearts
but you\'ll find in some lives, I\'ve played my part
Theres always that one who got away
but I was never enough for her to stay
Her father didn\'t think I was up to much
and those weren\'t impressions that I could crush
the bottle was always my one and only
her love couldn\'t save me, she left me lonely
I hope there\'s a hell in heaven
for people like me
A hell in heaven, guess we\'ll see
I never did nothing to make my mother cry
but I know for me she has no pride
I threw away my time, I did no right
I\'ve lived such a simple, sad, sad life
I\'ll take what I got to wherever\'s next
I\'ve got nobody to give whats left
don\'t pity me, it\'s better than you think
I\'m happy so long as I have one more drink
I hope there\'s a hell in heaven
for people like me
A hell in heaven, guess we\'ll see
