When you get to heaven
Won't you put a good word in for me
God knows I need all the help I can get
When you get your mansion
Will you save a room for me
Even though I ain't there yet
Cause I'm on my way
Every day I get a little bit closer to you my friend
So when you get to heaven
Won't you put a good word in for me
When I die, all I can say is I tried
I tried, I tried so hard
When I die, all I can say is I tried
When I die, all I can say is I tried
I tried, I tried so hard
When I die, all I can say is I tried
When you see Saint Peter
Please tell him that I'm on my way
Even though I screw it up every day
When you see Saint Peter
Please ask him to be easy on me
I've been the best man that I can be
Cause I'm on my way
Every day I get a little bit closer to you my friend
So when you see Saint Peter
Please ask him to be easy on me
When you see Saint Peter
Please ask him to be easy on me
When I die, all I can say is I tried
I tried, I tried so hard
When I die, all I can say is I tried
When I die, all I can say is I tried
I tried, I tried so hard
When I die, all I can say is I tried
When I die, all I can say is I tried
I tried, I tried so hard
When I die, all I can say is I tried
So when you get to heaven
Won't you put a good word in for me
When you get to heaven
Won't you put a good word in for me
