G7
Now you tell me that there are streets
                           C
of gold and angels in the air
    D
Now all that's fine and dandy and
                       G7
I'm sure it's nice up there
There's just one thing that
                               C
I need to know 'fore I settle down
       D
Can I take my hounds to heaven
               G7
Can I hunt on God's ground

Now you say if I quit drinking and
try to toe the line
I can make it up to glory at the end of my life
And while whiskey's hard to throw away,
it's somethin' I'd try to do
If I could spend forever runnin'
hounds and treein' coons

Chorus:
               C7
But if I can't take my hounds to heaven
            G7
If I can't hunt on God's land
Then I'd rather load my dog box
                                D7
up and go to hell with all my friends
          G7
Now I'll wake up in the morning
                   C7
and follow you to town
          D7
If I can take my hounds to heaven
                  G7
If I can hunt on God's ground

Now you say if I quit smokin'
and my rough and rowdy ways
We can hold hands forever on
streets of gold someday
But the only way I could stand it now,
and I hate to say it's true
When you give me a hard time,
I can do what I wanna do

Chorus:
If I can't take my hounds to Heaven, if
I can't hunt on God's land
I'd rather load my dog box up and go to
Hell with all my friends
And I will wake up in the mornin' and
I'll follow you to town
If I can take my hounds to Heaven, if
I can hunt on God's ground
If I can take my hounds to Heaven, if
I can hunt on God's ground
