[Verse 1] Everybody has their own idea of heaven What kind of paradise they'll see Pearly gates, streets of gold No gettin' sick, or growin' old Sounds like a beautiful place to be But as for me [Chorus 1] My heaven is a wood frame house with a great big porch goin' all the way around Sittin' on the swing listenin' to the sound of the birds singin' My heaven is a warm summer day in the backyard, while the kids all play Flies and mosquitoes stay away, while we're eatin' watermelon [Post-Chorus] That's my heaven [Verse 2] You're always gonna find a few non-believers Those who stay lost in the dark But I believe there is a place, full of light 'n love and grace And I don't believe that it's all that far, in my heart [Chorus 2] My heaven is a cell phone ring While I'm at work, and the only thing, that you have to say Is you miss me and get home in a hurry My heaven is the very worst day that I spent with you When you were so mad but I still knew Nobody would leave 'cause that don't happen [Chorus 3] My heaven is where I am now on the front porch of the wood frame house Swingin' with you just lookin' around at all I've been given, and this life I'm livin' [Post-Chorus] It's my heaven [Outro] My heaven My heaven
