Preacher told me last Sunday Mornin?Son, you better start livin rightyou need to quit the women and whiskeyand carrying on all nightdon't you wanna hear him call your namewhen you're standing at the pearly gates?I told the preacher, Yes I doBut I hope they don't call todayI ain't ready"Everybody wants to go to heavenhave a mansion high above the cloudsEverybody want to go to heavenBut nobody want to go nowI said, "Preacher maybe you didn't see meThrow an extra twenty in the platethere's one for everything I did last nightAnd one to get me through today""Here's a ten to help you rememberNext time you got the good Lord's earSay I'm coming but there ain't no hurryI'm havin' fun down here"Don't you know thatEverybody wants to go to heavenGet their wings and fly aroundEverybody want to go to heavenBut nobody want to go nowSomeday I want to see thoseStreets of gold in my haloBut I wouldn't mind waintng at leastA hundred years or soEverybody wanna go to heavenIt beats the other place there ain't no doubtEverybody wanna go to heavenBut nobody wanna go nowEverybody wanna go to heavenhallelujah, let me hear you shoutEverybody wanna go to heavenBut nobody wanna go nowI think I speak for the crowdNobody want to go now
