Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven Lyrics - Alison Krauss

(Loretta Lynn) 

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, death 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 death 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...
