"How Do You Get To Heaven" lyrics

"How Do You Get To Heaven"

The Jew was new
He didn't know what to do
The Arab stayed cool
And just stood there, too
The black man said, "Hey, man
Ah, won't you tell us some of the rules
'Cause we all come from the same place
And we've all paid some dues"

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?

China man, he stood there
With a rice bowl in his hand
The Indian he stood there, too
Lookin' at his Promised Land
And the black man said, "Hey, man
Ah, won't you tell us some of the rules
'Cause we all come from the same place
And we've all paid some dues"

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?

You can pray to Jehovah
You put up, oh, your guru
Makes no difference to me, man
Who you wanna pray to
Long as you remember
It ain't what you do but the way you do
And to do unto others
As you'd have them do to you

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?

How do you get to Heaven?
Is it somethin' that we've done?
Or is it because we're different from you
That you tell us we can't come?
