Some people preaching
They do very well
They take all your money
And you can go to hell
And thats all
Thats all
When you could have jesus
And thats all
You can go to your college
You can go to your school
If you aint got jesus
Youre just an educated fool
And thats all
Thats all
You gotta have jesus now
And thats all
If you pardon me sir
You aint doin too well
You spend your whole life sinning
And youre going to hell
And thats all
But that aint all
Cuz you could have jesus now
And thats all
Its good to stand together
Its bad to stand apart
The only ones going to heaven
Are the pure in heart
And thats all
Thats all
You better get jesus now
And thats all
Jesus is coming back on the dividing day
Taking in the sheep
Turning the goats away
Thatll be all now
Thatll be all
You better take jesus now
And thats all
