My trip to Heaven was pretty sweet

Yes, I arrived here with some flair

I slid in sideways screaming yee haw

With my pinkys up in the air

Life wasn’t meant to be so boring

And oh some living I have done

They still tell stories of me now

Yes,  I’m known as a crazy one

I lived each day there to its fullest

And each night my heart had a smile

I hope I blessed you with sweet memories

As I lived life in my own style

I hope I left you with some laughs

As I shared with you my life’s years

Please don’t just focus that I’m gone

I ask that you don’t cry those tears

You see, I’m right here at your side

So raise your glass, remember me

Lets toast to my amazing life

I’m perfect here, someday you’ll see

So when your journey there is over

Yes, I’ll be here to see you again

But please just do me one small favor

Pinky’s up as you slide in
