No Hurry to Get to Heaven (SMMD, Nathan Moore)

No Hurry to Get to Heaven

I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven, I ain't about to go there now
I ain't packing my bags and I ain't slowin down
that's funny cause Heaven is Heaven and here I am living in a hole
I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven, I'd just as soon go downtown
me I think I'll always like having living folk around
I'm sure I'll get along with the Angels but they ain't like anyone I know
I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven, in fact I might not ever go

I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven
and that's the best place there ever was
must be something wrong with me
but I can always get to eternity tomorrow
I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven, thanks but no thanks
there's bluebirds on the window, there's lilies on the banks
if I had to choose, I'd sit here in sorrow
I'm in no hurry to get the Heaven, in fact I might not ever go

I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven
I hope I'm not needed up there
I prefer to breathe this fresh country air
but if I had to choose I'd even breathe the city smoke
I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven
there's something troublin 'bout a pearly gate
if you go tell Saint Peter for me he'll just have to wait
I'm hanging on here as long as I can hold
I'm in no hurry to get to Heaven, in fact I might not ever go
