Rose Maddox - Sweethearts In Heaven (with Buck Owens) Lyrics

Buck Owens & Rose Maddox

Chorus:
Will there be sweethearts in heaven
After we cross the line
If the angels have sweethearts
Then I want you for mine.

(Buck)
If I should go first and leave you behind
To face life alone, bare this in mind
(Rose)
That I'll be a-waiting if heaven's my fate
To take you by the hand just inside the pearly gates.

(Buck Owens & Rose Maddox)
Chorus:
Will there be sweethearts in heaven
After we cross the line
If the angels have sweethearts
Then I want you for mine.

--- Instrumental ---

(Buck)
I'd be a tramp and sleep in the street
Or I'd be a begger with rags on my feet
(Rose)
If I knew for sure when the time comes to part
Someday in heaven you'd be my sweetheart.

(Buck & Rose)
Chorus:
Will there be sweethearts in heaven
After we cross the line
If the angels have sweethearts
Then I want you for mine...
