I was strolling down the highway
And I rode a mighty storm
Then I heard a voice from heaven
Telling me I had to stand there
All alone
I folded
Folded my arms
And this is what I did
This is what Jesus said
If you want to make it to heaven
You've got to stay in
The safe
The safety zone
How well do I remember
How well do I remember
It was a long, long time ago
When my mother died and left me
And my father
He did too
And all my friends
Oh, despised me
And all my friends
And they left me one by one
Then I started out for heaven
And I stepped in the safe, the safety zone
Oh, I'm standing in the safety zone
Lord, sometimes, sometimes
I've got to stand there all by myself
When all of my friends forsake me
And they cause me to weep and mourn
I'm standing in the safety zone
Oh, sometimes, sometimes
I've got to stand there all alone
Oh, I'm standing in the safety zone
But Jesus said
If you want to get to heaven
You, you, you, you
Got to stand
The safe, the safety zone
But Jesus said
Oh, I'm standing in the safety zone
If you want to get to heaven
You, you, you, you
Got to stand
The safe, the safety zone
