Preacher told me last Sunday mornin' |
|
Son, you better start livin' right |
|
You need to quit the women and whiskey |
|
And carryin' on all night |
|
Don't you wanna hear Him call your name |
|
When you're standin' at the Pearly Gates? |
|
I told the preacher, "Yes I do" |
|
But I hope they don't call today |
|
I ain't ready |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
Have a mansion high above the clouds |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
But nobody wants to go now |
|
Said, Preacher, maybe you didn't see me |
|
Throw an extra twenty in the plate |
|
There's one for everything I did last night |
|
And one to get me through today |
|
Here's a ten to help you remember |
|
Next time you got the good Lord's ear |
|
Say I'm comin' but there ain't no hurry |
|
I'm havin' fun down here |
|
Don't you know that |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
Get their wings and fly around |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
But nobody wants to go now |
|
Someday I want to see those streets of gold |
|
In my halo |
|
But I wouldn't mind waiting at least |
|
A hundred years or so |
|
Everybody wants go to heaven |
|
It beats the other place there ain't no doubt |
|
Everybody wants go to heaven |
|
But nobody wanna go now |
|
Everybody wants go to heaven |
|
Hallelujah, let me hear you shout |
|
Everybody wants go to heaven |
|
But nobody wants go now |
|
I think I speak for the crowd |
|
Nobody wanna go now, yeah |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
Get their wings and fly around |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
But nobody wants to go now |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
Get their wings and fly around |
|
Everybody wants to go to heaven |
|
But nobody wants to go now |
