About the song
“Willie Nelson, a country music icon who devoted his life to music, once again makes us think with “Heaven Is Closed.” This song, from his latest album, is not only a melodic tune but also a contemplative work of art about life, love and acceptance.
At 90, Willie Nelson has lost none of his sharpness in lyrics and melody. “Heaven Is Closed” is not a song of despair, but of a calm acceptance of life’s limitations. He sings about the closing of heaven’s door, not with resentment, but with a deep understanding that this earthly life, with all its ups and downs, is worth cherishing.
The melody of the song is traditional country music, with rustic acoustic guitar and Willie Nelson’s signature husky voice. His music has always had a magical power magical, can touch the hearts of listeners, no matter what age they are. “Heaven Is Closed” is no exception. This song is a reminder that we should cherish every moment of life, no matter how difficult it is.
The lyrics are poetic, with profound metaphors about life and death. Willie Nelson does not try to hide the truth, but faces it head on, with sincerity and courage. He is not afraid of death, but sees it as an inevitable part of life.
“Heaven Is Closed” is not just a song, but a message. A message of acceptance, of appreciating life, and of being at peace with human limitations. Willie Nelson has dedicated his life to conveying these messages through his music, and “Heaven Is Closed” is one of his best works.
For those who have experienced many ups and downs in life, “Heaven Is Closed” can be a deep empathy. For young people, this song can be a valuable lesson in appreciating life. And for everyone, “Heaven Is Closed” is a work of art worth contemplating and appreciating.”

Lyrics
Heaven is closed and hell’s overcrowded
So I think I’ll just stay where I am
So many people, well it sure is lonely
Who even gives a damn?
I hear someone callin’, “Come in from the craziness”
But there ain’t nobody around
Heaven is closed and hell’s overcrowded
So I think I think I’ll just stay where I am
Heaven left for California on a midnight plane
Hell stayed behind so I wouldn’t be lonely
For reasons that’s hard to explain
Could it be hell is heaven and that heaven is hell
And each one are both the same thing?
Well I hope heaven finds what she’s lookin’ for
And that hell treats us both just the same
Heaven is closed and hell’s overcrowded
So I think I think I’ll just stay where I am
So many people, well it sure is lonely
Who even gives a damn?
I hear someone callin’, “Come in from the craziness”
But there ain’t nobody around
Heaven is closed and hell’s overcrowded
So I think I think I’ll just stay where I am
Let’s burn one for those that’s livin’ in hell
Let’s burn one for those who think they’re in heaven
Burn one for everyone in the whole world
And anyone stuck in-between
Heaven is closed and hell’s overcrowded
So I think I think I’ll just stay where I am
So many people, well it sure is lonely
But who even gives a damn?
I hear someone callin’, “Come in from the craziness”
But there ain’t nobody around
Heaven is closed and hell’s overcrowded
So I think I think I’ll just stay where I am
Yeah heaven is closed and hell’s overcrowded
So I think I think I’ll just stay where I am
