Tom T. Hall - I Don't Want My Golden Slippers lyrics

[Verse:] I don't want my golden slippers when I reach my heaven's home I just want to see my Jesus sitting there upon his throne I don't want no fancy mansions just a place to rest my head Where I rest in peace eternal when I pay my earthly debt I don't want my golden slippers when I enter heaven's door I'll be free to sing his praises where the sun shines evermore Just a plain and simple cottage down the street from Jesus' door Where I'll visit with my loved ones who had journeyed on before I don't want my golden slippers just a plain and simply shoes I don't want my golden pathways just a country road or two Love to see the devil tremble when he sees me on my knees I don't want my golden slippers, I'm just longing to be free
