All You Gotta Do
Parody of "All I Wanna Do" by Sheryl Crow
((Romans 3:25, 5:9; Ephesians 2:8-10; Micah 6:6-8; John 6:28-29))
Hit it!
I ain't no bimbo!
This ain't no cult I'm in, either!
It's the real way!
All I wanna do is have a home in Heaven when I die
Says a man next to me – How do I go there?
'Cause I don't know nothin' -- I'm just a shameful failure
And I'm sure I'd feel real silly at a Bible study
Can you explain something to me?
'Cause I wonder if I'll ever have a way of findin' eternal life
And me, I think it's clear it'll soon be doomsday
And as far as faith is concerned, I'm sure lost
And the good people of the world
Are worshipping God every Sunday
Holy and celibate – I bet they came to church in suits
The guy beside me thought that he blew it
I'd better show him somethin' and let him know the truth
'Cause it's nothing like that really, you see
'Cause all you gotta do is have God's Son
That's not a theory; my God, He told me, hon
All you gotta do is have God's Son
I'm talkin' Jesus; there's lots of phony ones
All you gotta do is have God's Son
That really sums things up on this matter 'cause it's not really hard
I like my good friend Paul's letter to the Romans
He said that Christ was killed to save us and we're bought with His blood
He spreads His arms apart and He loves every man with an oversized passion
Instead of lettin' each one burn
Now He can fix sinners – even though there's a curse in our lives
'Cause we got into trouble with God when we sinned at the start
When the happy couple entering the garden
Flagrantly chose to run amok there
But God sent us His Son if you want that
'Cause all you gotta do is have God's Son
That's not a theory; my God, He told me, hon
All you gotta do is have God's Son
I'm talkin' Jesus; there's lots of phony ones
All you gotta do is have God's Son
That really sums things up on this matter 'cause it's not really hard
LEAD
Otherwise we'd all be lost
But, hey, it's all right 'cause the Lord wants you
The Bible says to trust and believe in the Son of God
He's comin' real soon
'Cause all you gotta do is have God's Son
That's not a theory; my God, He told me, hon
All you gotta do is have God's Son
I'm talkin' Jesus; there's lots of phony ones
All you gotta do is have God's Son
Why not just read it? Yes, start the New Testament
All you gotta do is have God's Son
I'm gonna tell you once more and only once
All you gotta do is have God's Son
That really sums things up on this matter 'cause it's not really hard
That really sums things up on this matter 'cause it's not really hard
