Everybody want to laugh
Nobody wants to cry
Everybody want to laugh
Nobody wants to cry
Everybody want to go to heaven
Nobody wants to die

Everybody wants to hear the truth now
Still they want to tell lies
Everybody wants to hear the truth
But still they want to tell lies
Everybody want to go to heaven
Nobody, nobody wants to die

Everybody wants to know the reason
Without even askin’ why
Everybody want to know the reason
Without even askin’ why
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Nobody, nobody wants to die

Everybody want to go to heaven now
But nobody wants to die
You know, I don’t know
I don’t know what they got in store for me when I leave the planet
But I would like to go
I’d like to go to heaven
But I got one thing to say about it
I just got one thing I gotta, I got to say
Not now, not now, not now, not now
I got to play these blues
I got work to do
I got a whole lot of livin’ left to do
It sure feels good to be alive
