George Strait - Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven lyrics

Preacher told me last Sunday mornin' Son, you better start livin' right You need to quit the whiskey and the women And carryin' on all night So don't you wanna hear Him call your name When you're standin' at the Pearly Gates? I told the preacher man, "Yes I do" But I hope they don't call today I ain't ready Everybody want to go to heaven Have a mansion up above the clouds Everybody want to go to heaven Nobody want to go now I said preacher maybe you didn't see me Throw an extra twenty in the plate That'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 want to go to heaven Get their wings and fly around Everybody want to go to heaven But nobody want go now Someday I want to see those streets Of gold and get in my halo But I wouldn't mind waiting At least a hundred years or so Everybody want to go to heaven It beats the other place, there ain't no doubt Everybody want to go to heaven But nobody want go now Everybody want to go to heaven Hallelujah, let me hear you shout Everybody want to go to heaven But nobody want go now I think I can speak for the crowd Nobody want go now, hey, hey Oh, man, come on, I know what you talking, man Everybody want to get to heaven Not just me, everybody, man The Pearly Gate, man, oh, yeah, oh, yeah
