Heaven Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere Songtext
von Steve Earle & the Dukes

River Jordan is deep and wide
Heaven ain′t goin' nowhere
Perilous crossing to the other side
I reckon heaven ain′t goin' nowhere
Mmm
Heaven ain't goin′ nowhere

Glory and my hard road to travel, I′m told
Heaven ain't goin′ nowhere
Back bent double by a ponderous load
I reckon heaven ain't goin′ nowhere
Mmm
Heaven ain't goin′ nowhere


I work all day so I sleep alright
Heaven ain't goin' nowhere
I raise a little hell on a Saturday night
I reckon heaven ain′t goin′ nowhere
Mmm
Heaven ain't goin′ nowhere

Don't worry about putting nothin′ away
Heaven ain't goin′ nowhere
Money's no good come Judgment Day
I reckon heaven ain't goin′ nowhere
Mmm
Heaven ain′t goin' nowhere
Mmm
Heaven ain′t goin' nowhere
