Heaven
[Verse 1]
I was moved one Sunday morning
By the songs of Sister Tharpe
To wonder ‘bout salvation
And when it’s gonna start....

[Verse 2]
There ain’t no heaven, got to make one here
There ain’t no heaven, got to make one here
No father, no son, no heavenly choir
Just hearts and hands and our desire
There ain’t no heaven, got to make one here

[Verse 3]
There ain’t no justice, got to get some here
Ah there ain’t no justice, got to get some here
We gotta block the gates, cut the chains
Smash the borders, hop the trains
There ain’t no justice, got to get some here

[Verse 4]
You can have your gospel of suffering and delay
My celestial kingdom is gonna start today
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 4 repeated]
You can have your gospel of suffering and delay
My celestial kingdom is gonna start today

[Verse 5]
There ain’t no party, let’s have one here
There ain’t no party, let’s have one here
Let’s load a bowl, pour some wine
Read a book about Palestine
There ain’t no party, let’s have one here

[Outro]
Heaven, heaven
Heaven’s what we make of it right here
Heaven, heaven
Heaven’s what we make of it right here
Heaven’s what we make of it right here
