If they ever drop the big one, I got me a plan

I won't be in no bunker, eatin' peaches from a can

I'll be holed up in the basement with two very special guests

A big ol' stack of Flatt and Scruggs and a bag of Willie's best

Goin' out on a high note

A blaze of glory lit in my left hand

I'm goin' out on a high note

Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band

Mmhmm

Now it ain't Armageddon, but the weekend's finally here

Yeah, some folks wanna rock and roll and drink a downtown beer

Oh, but me and my sweet baby just crossed the great divide

Now we're rollin' like a banjo straight into Telluride

Goin' out on a high note

A blaze of glory lit in my left hand

I'm goin' out on a high note

Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band

Ain't gonna run, ain't gonna hide

I'm just gonna take a ride

Yeah, I'll be fine on judgement day

With a G-Run and a J

I'm goin' out on a high note

A blaze of glory lit in my left hand

I'm goin' out (I'm goin' out) on a high note

Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band

Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band

Yeah, that's my plan
