Half-Way to Heaven

Every night at seven

If I'm not in heaven

Then thank my lucky star

I'm not very far

I can always wander

To someone up yonder

That's just as sweet as angels are

Just halfway to heaven

You'll find a cottage small

Halfway to heaven

Beside a garden wall

Where butterflies are flirtin'

Out in the sun

Behind a kitchen curtain

Someone's cookin' while she's lookin'

Out of the window

To hear that old refrain

I whistle as I walk down the lane

Then she meets me halfway

Halfway up that pathway

That's halfway to heaven and you

Say, just halfway to heaven

You'll find a cottage small

Just halfway to heaven

Beside a garden wall

Where butterflies are flirtin'

Out in the sun

Behind a kitchen curtain

Someone's cookin' while she's lookin'

Out of the window

To hear that old refrain

I whistle every time that I walk down the lane

Then she meets me halfway

Halfway up that pathway

That's halfway to heaven and you
