Everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
You only have to do good deeds
supplying others' needs
Everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
The man in the shop who sells us soap
will no more in the darkness grope
Everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
All good children say your prayers
when you have gone up the stairs
Everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
You soldiers on the battlefield
don't buy a ticket - there is no need
Everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
You don't even have to be a Christian
just be a good man or good woman
Everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
As long as you repent in
the end, don't worry about sin
Everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
Everyone's going to heaven
If everyone's going to heaven
Sing Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah!
I want to go to Hell!
