Don Nix: Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven

"Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven"

Everybody wants to laugh but nobody wants to cry
I say, everybody wants to laugh but nobody wants to cry
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Everybody wanna hear the truth but yet, everybody wants to tell a lie
I say, everybody wants to hear the truth but still they all wanna tell a lie
Oh, everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Everybody wanna know the reason without even askin' why
Oh, everybody wanna know the reason, oh without even askin' why
You know everybody wanna go to heaven but nobody wants to die

- written by Don Nix, on 'The Best of Albert King'
