U-Haul Lyrics

How many possessions can a man possess
Before he acquires happiness - mmhhmm
It begs the question in quiet reflection
Can a man purchase his own redemption - mmhmm?
One thing Mama told me
It�s the God�s honest truth
Rich man might deny it
But I swear it ain�t no use

CHORUS:
You can�t take it with you
When they lay you in the dirt
Go ahead and try it
You would not be the first
Heaven ain�t Las Vegas
But I can think of somewhere worse
You can�t pull a U Haul behind your hearse - mmhhmm

They can put you in your Sunday suit with pennies on your eyes
But if you�re going where I�m going you won�t need no coat and tie � mmhhmm
Cause naked you came to the world leaving it�s just the same
The day you meet St. Peter up at those pearly gates � mmhmm
It�s like trying to shove a camel
Through the eye of a needle
It ain�t never gonna happen
I just gotta tell ya people

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
You can burn it, you can blow it
You can bet it on roulette
But Heaven�s garments have no pockets
For your old wallet � yeah�

CHORUS
