Oh you can't get to heaven *
On roller skates *
'Cause you'll roll right by *
Those pearly gates *
Chorus (repeat after each verse):
Oh you can't get to heaven on roller skates (**)
You'll roll right by those pearly gates (**)
I ain't gonna grieve my Lord no more!
I ain't a-gonna grieve my Lord no more, I ain't a-gonna grieve my Lord no more,
I ain't a-gonna grieve my Lord no more!
Oh you can't get to heaven *
In a rocking chair. *
'Cause the rocking chair*
Won't take you there. *
Oh you can't get to heaven *
In a rocket ship *
'Cause the rocket ship*
Won't make the trip. *
Oh you can't get to heaven *
On a pair of skis.*
'Cause you'll schuss right through *
St. Peter's knees. *
Oh you can't get to heaven *
In a limousine. *
'Cause the Lord don't sell *
No gasoline. *
Oh you can't get to heaven *
With Superman *
'Cause the Lord he is *
A Batman fan. *
