Will the angels greet me when I leave this mortal coil?
Will the gates of heaven open when they lay me in the soil?
I ain't been such a bad man I've tried to do the best I can
A man can't serve two masters
It's either the good Lord or the bad
Whichever way you roll
Make sure it's the best life you coulda had
Finding the light in all the darkest places
When I go don't be sad
There ain't no prayer in the Bible can save me now
Can save me now
I built myself a levee to hold back the flood
And when the levee broke I got fire in my blood
I ain't asking for redemption
I'm too far gone to save
Just hoping for some peace
When they lay me in my grave
There ain't no prayer in the Bible can save me now
Can save us now
