lyrics

Just a dive bar man he
Felt his best with a drink in his hand
He'd walk around and talk about it
And proclaim himself a king
He's just like his daddy
Said his ma with her tongue in her cheek
The wife of a ghost of a man
Who only visits her in dreams

So here lies he
Who drank himself to death over a girl he didn't care for
And who knows why
Their voices tremble but no one's calling
And as they cry
They're always wishing, wishing that they could see him now
Cause a dead man's always a good man in the end
Yeah a dead man's always a good man in the end

Last night drove his truck to the river
Left a note for the woman at home
Saying I'll be home by three
If I'm not leave me be
I'll be back before you know
Fell asleep at the wheel of his Chevy
As he dreamed of a statue of gold
With his name and his face on the side
But when he woke all he had was a stone

It read here lies he
Who drank himself to death over a girl he didn't care for
And who knows why
Their voices tremble but no one's calling
And as they cry
They're always wishing, wishing that they could see him now
Cause a dead man's always a good man in the end
Yeah a dead man's always a good man in the end
