LYRICS
That’s all
That’s all I need
That’s all
That’s all I need
That’s all
That’s all I need
Just a little more faith
And a little more speed

Well all the preachers gonna tell you
You gotta go to church
You gotta put your time in
Or be left in the lurch
Me I'll take my chances
For better or worse
If that's the only way to heaven
Then I gotta see it first

Now when I die
And my body grows cold
You can knock open my mouth
And crack out all the gold
Load up my records
Bag up my shoes
Pull up the truck
Put an ad in the news

Don't need a highway
Don't need a boat
Don't need a hook
To hang up my coat
Don't need a ticket
Or a hat for my head
I got my bags packed and ready
By the side of the bed

Take all my guns
I don’t need to shoot
Take my piano
And my license to boot
if someone comes knocking
I’m taking my debts
they’ll have to find me
if they want to collect

Clap your hands
Shout hallelujah
Leave me a message
And I'll get right back to ya
My shoes are hole-y
My t-shirt's worn
I been setting the trend
Since the day I was born
