Some people go to school tryin' to learn how to preach

And that's all, and that's all You'd better change your way of livin'

Save all the money that he can
One day undertaker lets him down
Where's he gonna spend that money under the ground

But the Good Book, brother, just don't tell it that way

And I necessarily mean this song for you
But if you don't like the way the little song goes
Well, it's a mighty good sign that I've been trottin' on your toes
And that's all, and that's all
