One Big Heaven

My buddies ask me,

if I would write them a song

That says how we're different,

but how good we all get along

Well, Bob, he's a baptist

and his wife, she's cherokee

And Larry, he's a Lutheran,

and his grand daddy is Cree

Well, Paul, he's Penticostal

and his pastor prays for the Sea

and Rusty's dad is a rabbi

but we go huntin' go fish

Well, Carl, he's a Catholic boy,

and his daddy fought in the war

and Joe's mom is in Lebanon

and he knows he believes in the Law

He believes in one big God

and one big heaven

'cause that's where we all want

to be goin'

Well, daddy played his guitar

in churches all over the south

momma played piano

and sometimes she'd sing and shout

Sister's sang altogether

and brought the harmony out

And think about, one big God

and one big heaven

'cause that's where we all want

to be goin'

Well, me, I'm a believer

and I do believe

In all God's children

as far as I can see

Just one big God

and one big heaven

'cause that's where we all want

to be goin'

And one big God

and one big heaven,

Just save a little space ... for me.
