Mel: I ain'a-gonna grieve my Lord
Försångare: There are three things
Alla: There are three rhings
Försångare: you mustn't do:
Alla: you mustn't do:
Försångare: you mustn't smoke
Alla: you mustn't smoke
Försångare: or drink or chew.
Alla: or drink or chew
There are three things
you mustn't do:
you mustn't smoke
or drink or chew
I ain'a-gonna grieve
my Lord no more.
Refräng: I ain'a-gonna grieve my Lord
I ain'a-gonna grieve my Lord
I ain'a-gonna grieve
my Lord no more.
You'll never go to heaven
in an old Ford car
'cause an old Ford car
won't go that far.
You'll never go to heaven
in a limousine
'cause the Lord don't have
no gasoline.
You'll never go to heaven
in a woman's arms,
' cause the Lord don't like
those feminine charms.
You'll never go to heaven
in powder and paint
'cause the Lord don't like
you as you ain't.
You'll never go to heaven
as an architect,
'cause the Lord don't like
his houses wrecked.
You'll never go to heaven
as an engineer,
'cause an engineer
drinks too much beer.
You'll never go to heaven
as a circus clown,
'cause the Lord don't like
you upside down.
There's one more thing
you mustn't do:
you mustn't stand
in a cinema queue.
And that was all
S:t Peter said
and closed the door
and went to bed.
