“Oh I know I’m going to heaven, but I can’t go with me like this, I need to pull myself together, before then,” Stephen Barker Liles of Love and Theft sings. “No and I ain’t afraid of dying, but what scares me to death is meeting Jesus with whiskey on my breath,” he continues, in the chorus.
Towards the end of the music video, one will need a Kleenex ready since it has a happy ending, where the father is reunited with the daughter.
