Lyrics

Heaven was gettin' boring
With all that, layin' 'round
The angels lost their sense of humor
And the choir had lost it's sound.
Fellas hangin' round the pearly gates
Wouldn't bother, goin' in
Some of the good girls were thinkin'
They maybe shoulda tried a bit more sin.
The big man had the blues
The place had lost its shine.
He said "we could use a little fun up here"
So he took my partner in crime.

Now there's card games in the parlor
And dancing on the patio
Them ladies are kickin' up their heels
While the choir sways too and fro.

Yeah the big man needed a good friend
So he took one son of a gun
The life of the party is up there
And they're finally havin' fun in heaven.
Yeah they're finally havin' fun in heaven.

I betcha found an angel
To love ya till the end of time
You just flashed that devilish grin
And she fell at the drop of a dime.
Maybe you're on a beer run
Yeah the big man likes it cold
Y'all been keeping some late nights
Ya ain't worried about gettin' old

Yeah the big man needed a good friend
So he took one son of a gun
The life of the party is up there
And they're finally havin' fun in heaven.
Yeah they're finally havin' fun in heaven.

Well it's a little quiet down here
But, that's just the price we pay
Got so bad they nearly shut it down
But now heaven is here to stay.
The big man plays to win
My friend's gone, all he left is a song
And now I've gotta behave myself
So someday I can join along.

Yeah the big man needed a good friend
So he took one son of a gun
The life of the party is up there
And they're finally havin' fun in heaven.
Yeah they're finally havin' fun in heaven.
Oh they're finally having fun.
In heaven.
