From the recording Long Way To Heaven

Truth meets imagination on a Texas road

Lyrics

Well there I was - hitch hiking 'cross the great state of Texas
Lord the girl that picked me up - drove on both sides of the road
Up on the dashboard's where you're gonna find her beer
It's a long way to heaven from here
I said "okay Ms. Dallas - why you gotta drive like that?"
She said, "Okie Dokie Okie - I guess you forgot where you're at.
Hey long tall Tulsa boy - That's how we drive down here"
It's a long way to heaven from here
Well when we get to Bandera - She slows down to 85
Says let's have a few down at Arkie Blues - Then I'll let you drive
Well we're back in the car again - Somehow, she's behind the wheel
I said, "wait a minute baby - I thought that we had a deal"
She said, "shut yer yap - climb in the back - uncap another beer"
And I'm thinking It's a long way to heaven from here
Well right outside of Luckenbach - She bought a case of Shiner Bok
Then I saw the alien - float above the cattle pen - I screamed - my god
Watch out for that steer - It's a long way to heaven from here
