Lyrics
Well, Helen had enough of my drinkin' And boarded a flight to L.A I heard she's in a motel in Marina Del Rey She told me where I could go When she walked out the door So I went and bought me a round-trip ticket Down at the liquor store
Now I've been to hell and back Tryin' to get Helen back But she don't answer calls at 2 a.m I'd put this bottle down Right now if she walked in 'Cause my idea of heaven Is Helen back again
So I booked a flight and went out there Not knowin' where she'd be But all I found was a bar downtown In sunshine and misery And passed out on the flight back to Tennessee
Now I've been to hell and back Tryin' to get Helen back But she don't answer calls at 2 a.m I'd put this bottle down Right now if she walked in 'Cause my idea of heaven Is Helen back again
I'd put this bottle down Right now if she walked in 'Cause my idea of heaven Is Helen back again Oh, my idea of heaven Is Helen back again
