Paisley, Brad - A Man Don't Have To Die Lyrics






Well he yelled out from the back row look here preacher man
We all know you're new here but you need to understand
It don't really scare us when you yell and shake your fist
You see we already know that hell exists

Its six months short of thirty years when the boss man lays you off
No thankin you, no parachute, and no shiny new gold watch
Its payments you cant make on a house that you cant sell
See a man don't have to die to go to hell
No you don't have to die to go to hell

So tell us bout them angels and how they fly around and sing
Tell us how to get there cause we all want to be
Restin in the arms of Jesus no shame or pain or tears
There's hell enough to go around down here

Its a place out by the airport where the girls dance just for you
And all you feel is drunk and broke and lonely when they're through
Its waking up with nothing but that stale tobacco smell
See a man don't have to die to go to hell
Nah you don't have to die to go to hell

Oooh oooh oooh [x2]

Its every other weekend and Wednesdays with your kid
And knowin that he'll hate you when he finds out what you did
Cause you'd all still be together if you loved his momma well
There ain't no end to the stories we could tell
Yeah a man don't have to die to go to hell

So tell us bout them angels how they fly around and sing

Oooooh oooh ooohohhh [x2]

  1. G.... i....

    I hope to appeared in that video

  2. B.... C....

    Damn. That's heavy

  3. p.... s....

    Brad is my favorite.. I'm glad to be alive right now by the grace of God to hear my country singer

  4. s.... t....

    Awesome song!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. P.... A....

    Amen or woman. Good song.. oh how well we know about HELL..

  6. G.... Y....

    I love it.

  7. H.... L....

    Schöner Song, mehr aber leider auch nicht. Jeder andere etwas unbeanntere Country Interpret hätte mit so einem Titel mit Sicherheit keinen Erfolg. Aber Anerkennung muss sein, das hat Brad Paisley sich halt erarbeitet in all den Jahren! That´s all!

  8. M.... ....

    I despise this song because it trivializes what hell truly is! If you think for one minute that hell is like a bad day on this earth you are sadly mistaken.
    There is a real hell and many people are going there so repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.
    I like Brad Paisley and I wish you wouldn’t of made this song

  9. A.... A....

  14. J.... T....

    Awesome!! Finally something like the old stuff.

  15. C.... W....

    I am officially going to watch every video that has this disclaimer. [WARNING: REAL COUNTRY]

  16. H.... B....

    Eternal hell for anyone when we die is incomparable to any hell we can experience on earth. Don't forget Jesus talked about hell more than he did heaven. It is real...

    A man DOESN'T have to die (Warning: REAL GRAMMAR)

  18. O.... J....

    oo yes i love country music

  23. M.... j....

    True shit right there

  24. P.... G....

    What state has country music come to where someone felt the need to have a disclaimer saying “real country music”? Sad days. Keep up the work Brad

  25. Y.... ....

    Fake country

    Y.... ....

    Federico Floris I’m not trying to be a idiot I’m sorry . Just I see it that real style country music has died in the 90s compared to modern day and I’m a 90s baby just there was a big leap in the sound and what is being sung about

    Y.... ....

    @YoRepLay I loved George Jones' style back in the 50's, but I honestly didn't like his music when he started adding pop fluorishes to it -expecially in the 70s. Country music changed a lot over the years and it's obviously influenced by pop, but I think people like Randy Travis and George Strait have managed to bring back a sound that is real. It's contemporary to some extent, but still real. Today's country sucks hard, I hate people such as Jason Aldean or Kane Brown. That is fake plastic music. But I'm glad to see there's people fighting and releasing some real country music. Look at Tyler Childers. And a song like this one, coming from an A list act such as Brad Paisley, is a huge step in the right direction. A song with real lyrics, real instruments and a lot of heart and soul in it. That's what makes country music the best in the world.

    Y.... ....

    Federico Floris yes I agree with you on all points. George Jones was one of me and my mothers favourites can’t beat his voice . But yes the positive roots in this song are great. Mo pitney is another underrated young fella that sings all the great songs from the past . But glad we came to a understanding and all we can ask for is country music to be respected for everyone that’s played before them

    Y.... ....

    @YoRepLay yes I completely agree! And hopefully we'll see more people bringing back real sounds in the future. I used to love Mo Pitney but obviously country radio screwed him... that's a shame...

  26. B.... H....

    So tell us bout them angels and how they fly around and sing
    Tell us how to get there cause we all want to be
    Resting in the arms of Jesus no shame or pain or tears
    There's hell enough to go around down here.
    Love from India 🇮🇳

  27. J.... ....

    Just as YOU ALWAYS BRING OUTSTANDING SONG,glad your back!♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️☘

  28. B.... ....

    best modern day country song I've heard in a long time

    B.... ....

    Justin Moore - the ones that didn't make it back home

  29. K.... R....

    Damn good... one of the best songs I’ve heard in a while

  30. D.... A....

    This is great 👍 brad paisley is awesome

  31. C.... L....

    Thanks god he still makes real country and he hasn’t gone to bro country

  32. L.... A....

    Wow just love Brad

  33. J.... R....

    Josh Thompson was the one that wrote this song if I’m not mistaken. He needs to record it himself. I think it would be just as good as this one.

  34. H.... C....

    10 seconds into the song, I have to give a thumb up

  35. R.... g....

    It’s good to know that brad paisley is still rocking and keeping it real

  36. 6.... ....

    Sounds amazing 🙏🏼

  37. B.... M....

    This is what I love about Brad Paisley, his lyrics are thoughtful and witty but, still keeping it country. Many do not sound country at all anymore being genre confused!

  38. P.... T....

    I was skeptical that this would be real country given the artist's track record. But this could have come off a Merle Haggard album. Good job Brad.

  39. M.... B....

    Talk to carrie n get back to country n have write songs of the heart

  40. Q.... S....

    This song has been on my playlist for years now. Love it!!!

  41. H.... 8....

    About time he sang something worth a damn. Last country song he sang had to be from his mud on the tires album.

    H.... 8....

    Absolutely not true. If you check out his last album "Love and War" from 2017 there's some very good country songs in it. "Gold all over the Ground" was written by Johnny Cash and Brad did a killer job with it. "Grey Goose Chase" is upbeat and bluegrass oriented. "I Do Now" and "One of those Lives" off of his "This is Country Music" album are outstanding songs. Brad only lacked of consistency between 2013 and 2014 with his mediocre records "Wheelhouse" and "Moonshine in the Trunk".

  42. I.... C....

    I find it sad we need a warning about REAL country music now a days! BRING IT BACK!!

  43. p.... ....

    This is what music is all about. This is the kind of music that will sing country music Jesus back for sure.

  44. R.... E....

    I love this song. It is real country

  45. S.... ....

    Awesome song brother man god is real im reborn in the light how about another fishing song. thank you for your music

    S.... ....

    I lost my pops a few years back and never really grieved for him when i spread his ashes i was the only one who went and today my mom god bless her. And i went to were. Put his. Ashes and said our good byes. Was magical he had his problems but he was good human being. god and him are smiling from up above im at peace for the first time in my life and this song came up i love it. God bless everyone and remember god is always there guiding you all of us through. Life. Amen

  46. A.... T....

    That's a real country music.
    Thanks Brad!

  47. Z.... H....

    Hey no snap track a steel guitar and a kick drum this is what should be playing on radio right now

    Z.... H....

    Dammit so right man this is like big blue sky and a beautiful breath of fresh air

  48. A.... t....

    GREAT song Brad

  49. N.... G....

    Exactly how I feel as a Christian these days.

  50. D.... s....

    Do your research brads is a celebrity Libtard!!!

    D.... s....

    Davie smith who cares?

    D.... s....

    Your point?

    D.... s....

    Ever heard "I'm still a guy"?

  51. A.... 0....

    15 Jason Aldean fans have been here

    A.... 0....

    cmon jason aldean has a lot of real country songs

    A.... 0....

    @Mark Milanovich Jason Aldean is the guy who destroyed country music. Greetings from Italy. Even Europe hates him.

    A.... 0....

    dude Jason Aldean sucks hard. Anybody has great songs buried as album cuts. Aldean has ruined country by releasing crap over crap to radio.

    A.... 0....

    @Gianluca Bianco nah sam hunt is worse

    A.... 0....

    @Mark Milanovich Sam Hunt wouldn't exist if Aldean had not broke the doors open to R&B in country music with burning it down.

  52. N.... K....

    Those tele licks get me every time 😢 I’m a les Paul guy but brad paisley makes that guitar sound just right so emotional I so need a telecaster sorry Gibson but my next purchase will be a fender....... 😋

    N.... K....

    FYI, Brad's guitars are made by Bill Crook of Nashville, TN. They look like Telecasters, but they employ some sophisticated features not found on Fenders.

    N.... K....

    Freddy Mclain that’s slick man I might Check em out but tbh I’m a traditionalist when it comes to guitars Gibson, fender, Taylor, and Martin that’s my interests but if this guys guitars look good enough I might go out on a limb and try one

  53. J.... M....

    Brad Paisley is in a league of his own ....unbelievable lyrics,melodies and of course, killer guitar solos 👍🇺🇸👏👏👏

  54. B.... ....

    This that old man only whites allowed country. Boring!

  55. A.... J....

    ♡♡♡

  56. A.... G....

    Much respite Brad Paisley, keeping his music pure in this modern era of over saturated pop country.

  57. J.... S....

    Amen!!! 🙏 preach it brother! God is the answer no matter what your goin through lean on God and He will have your back, He only puts us through stuff He knows we can handle as long as you ask for His guidance!

  58. L.... G....

    Great stuff Brad!! Hope all is well!!

  59. A.... v....

    Real country is the best country

  60. J.... m....

    I get to see brad live in just 10 days!!

    J.... m....

    I saw him back in June he was fantastic!!! I hope he is still with Chris Lane. Because he was phenomenal!!!

    J.... m....

    @Nick Rykert Had the chance to see him in Copenhagen. It was fantastic

  61. D.... V....

    Hello from Philipines,love country song especially from Brad anf kenny.where is this man located?i wanna see him someday and thank him for every song he made.

    D.... V....

    Brad lives in Tennessee, USA. Kenny Chesney is from the US as well, probably lives in Tennessee but I know he spends a lot of time at the Caribbeans. Since you live in the Philippines you might be interested to know that Clay Walker will be playing in Australia this November. Clay Walker is a huge country star, very similar to Brad and Kenny in style. Hope this helped you! 😊

  62. P.... C....

    J'aime bien

  63. b.... ....

    Thank god for country music !

  64. R.... S....

    thanks Brad Paisley for some straight ahead real country.

    R.... S....

    Yes this song was amazing

  65. k.... r....

    Definitely not even close to real country music. Nice try. It's the same garbage as all other "modern country"

    k.... r....

    lol if this ain't country you don't know what country music is. The fact that Paisley had commercial radio hits doesn't mean this is a pop song, whoever thinks so is a big idiot.

    k.... r....

    "Not even close to real country music"? are you kidding me? 🤣

  66. T.... S....

    That's damn country music. Thank you, Brad.

  67. g.... e....

    ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Brad

  68. l.... l....

    Necesita un "me encanta" esta canción...

  69. T.... C....

    No one cares to comment the whole intro is Don Henley? Boys of Summer?

  70. D.... M....

    Great song!!

  71. I.... R....

    Preach Brad! Jesus is the only way to eternal life! 🙏

  72. S.... K....

    Stage 4 Lung Cancer, and the medication takes you there every week. I know exactly what hell is like.

    S.... K....

    Keep fighting Shadoe, My father was diagnosed a year ago with stage 4 lung cancer and he is fighting strong. So many new medical advances out there nowadays. God bless you

    S.... K....

    I can feel for you my friend. You don't have to go through it all alone. Give it all to Jesus. Father knows best. Praying for your speedy recovery. God bless you. From INDIA 🇮🇳

    S.... K....

    May you be healed in Jesus name my friend.

    S.... K....

    Hey Shadoe, don’t call quits, religious or not the way to go is Cannabis oil but the proper stuff, I have 4 people I know in my country who have been where you are now. After 6/8 months virtually free from the disease with far better longevity prospects,

    S.... K....

    I wish you a full recovery and a happy life after God bless

    Thanks for the lyrics always appreciated when someone put them in the comments love country music 😀 love from Ireland 🤠 KEEP IT COUNTRY

  74. R.... B....

    Great Song! Thank you for singing this, Brad Paisley

  75. j.... m....

    I don't know if it's just me but its easier to believe and root for the upcoming artists when they sing songs like these. After a while hearing, millionaires singing about the common man's struggles just don't sit right. But, great song though.

    j.... m....

    I don't know of ANY millionaire who is exempt from any threat of cancer, do you?

  76. r.... f....

    Great song, they better start playing this on the radio

  77. M.... N....

    So true

  78. J.... S....

    You see, Brad Paisley ain't doing what is right by singing this song....yes he's opening up an idea about hardships and times on earth that man deals with and he thinks that represents hell. The whole truth is, we are all born into hell from birth because our nature was originally sculptured spiritually after the serpent when Eve took a bite of the forbidden fruit. Brad Paisley is none the less a demon than us all. Ain't nobody attempting to scare him with hell.....his life is already vanity.....his success don't amount to a hill of beans. Because death wipes out everything he ever accomplished....all his stuff turns back to dust just he does when he dies. Cause some one else inherits it and they sure don't care what all it took him to earn it. Sleepless nights, anxiety, worry, and frustration, disappointments and devastation....that all goes out the window when his heirs get their hands on all his free stuff. They will keep some, sell some, give some away and trash the rest.....it's free and it didn't cost me one night's sleep or worry. And he's gone forever into the dust....vanity. Work your ass off all your life for all that precious junk and leave it behind for some undeserving bitch to get her hands on it or some bratty ass kid or some distant relative that could care less about your fame and fortune and waste it all.

    J.... S....

    Sorry you have this outlook.

    J.... S....

    Woww, this guy needs a hug!!!!
    Sorry your family fuck you over some how. # VERY BITTER MAN!!!

  79. V.... P....

    Can't threaten us with Hell. Some of us dun been. Twice. Yet we maintain our Faith.🙏

  80. J.... B....

    " real country " man I wish country music still got played on country radio

    J.... B....

    I love Brad Paisley's music. This song really hits your core. You don't have to be a Christian like most of us to understand what hell feels like. If only Nashville featured more real country artists.
    List of some artists that I listen to and consider real country for anyone interested: Colter Wall, Tyler Childers, Sturgill Simpson, Aaron Watson, John Pardi, Chris Stapleton, Luke Combs, the Dead South, Brad Paisley, Aaron Lewis, Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks, George Strait, Keith Urban, Josh Turner, Billy Currington, Darius Rucker, the Zac Brown Band, Alabama, Confederate Railroad, Haggard, Cash, Kristofferson, Willie, Hank and Jr., Waylon, Creed Fisher, Buddy Brown, etc.

    J.... B....

    @Vincent Reyes Zac Brown Band has headed South

    J.... B....

    @Putra Julian Tampubolon Unfortunately. But "Colder Weather" and "Chicken Fried" will forever be in our hearts.

    Good song..Like to hear how it'd be if Jamey Johnson put his sound to it.

  82. M.... C....

    True to the Roots.

  83. S.... B....

    We will all go to heaven cause we all have our own living hell right here on earth

  87. k.... W....

    Brad Paisley and Preachers have Missed the Whole Point of God! When you Forgive Whatever Happened.. and Trust in God..He Will Give You What You Need! Have some Faith!

    k.... W....

    +Federico Floris..+Hillori Sartin..You have missed the whole point of God! I was saying you don't have to live in Hell..if you Forgive..and Have Faith in God. He can Restore your life! You do Not have to Live in Hell.

    k.... W....

    @kathleen Wharton which is the point of the song. We don't need people screaming at us about going to hell when we die. Some of us have already been there or may even be there now. We don't have to die to go there.

    k.... W....

    +Hillori Sartin.. I already know that! But Brad Paisley Never Gets to the Good Part. God Can Redeem You! If you want to stay in Hell..fine by me!

    k.... W....

    @kathleen Wharton It's not his job to offer you redemption. That's between you, god and your preacher. His job is to make you think and feel, and obviously he's doing his job very well, he's got you all wound up. Brad's responsibility is to the song, and if he gets different interpretations of what he meant from people from different walks of life he did his job well.

    k.... W....

    +Roadie The GameCat..I like to hear the Truth..whether it is spoken or sung. And some preacher has Nothing to Do with my Redemption.

  88. A.... H....

    Great song!

  89. T.... c....

    Thank you Brad pazlie We all go through some type of hell in our lives All we. All we can do is try and keep our faith and pick up our pieces the best we know how and keep on going forward.

  90. T.... M....
