Lyrics:

(Lyle Lovett) I went to a funeral Lord it made me happy Seeing all those people I ain't seen Since the last time Somebody died Everybody talking They were telling funny stories Saying all those things They ain't said Since the last time Somebody died But you take a look around you Don't it seem like something's missing I said something that weren't missing Lord the last time Somebody died You took him from the last time To that hallowed ground I'm praying take me to the next time Lord So I can hang around Then the people start to looking And some of them start crying And all the little children Lord they're scared Because they ain't never seen A dead man before You took him from the last time To that hallowed ground I'm praying take me to the next time Lord So I can hang around He's swimming through that Jordan Going to the other side But if it's all the same to you Lord I think I'll stay dry Now it's church on Sunday It's a bar on Friday night It's work on Monday The preacher Lord you know he might sing Hallelujah Sing hallelujah Sing hallelujah Sing hallelujah He's got church on Sunday And he got drunk the night before And he got his good gal when he got home The preacher said he wants some more of that Hallelujah Sing hallelujah Sing hallelujah Sing hallelujah Now if you want to get to heaven Let me tell you what to do You better grease your foot up buddy With that mutton stew And when the devil comes after you With them greasy hands Y
