Alison Krauss - Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven lyrics

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die Once upon a time there lived a man and his name was Isaac He walked with God both day and night but he didn't wanna die He cried, oh Lord, please let me live, d**h is close I know God smiled down on Isaac and gave him fifteen years to go. Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die Well, I long for the day when I'll have new birth 'cause I love the livin' here on earth Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die. When Jesus lived here on this earth he knew his father's plan He knew that he must give his life to save the soul of men When Judas had betrayed him her father heard him cry He was brave until his d**h but he didn't wanna die hey. Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die Well, I long for the day when I'll have new birth 'cause I love the livin' here on earth Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die. Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die...
