Looka Huck, do you wanna go to heaven
|
Do you wanna go to Heaven
|
Well I'll tell you right now
|
You better learn to read and you better learn your writin'
|
Or you'll never get to heaven 'cause you wont know how
|
You may think that the whole thing is silly
|
But it ain't silly really and I'll tell you right now
|
If you don't learn to read then you can't read your Bible
|
And you won't get to heaven 'cause you wont know how
|
Looka here Huck, now you better think it over
|
Do you wanna be a loafer like your pappy is now
|
You better learn to read and you better learn your writin'
|
Or you'll never get to heaven 'cause you wont know how
|
Hey, hey do you wanna go to heaven
|
Do you wanna go to heaven
|
If you don't go to hell
|
Looka here Huck, do you wanna go to heaven
|
Do you wanna go to heaven
|
Well I'll tell you right now
|
You better learn to read and you better learn your writin'
|
Or you'll never get to Heaven 'cause you wont know how
|
You may think that the whole thing is silly
|
But it ain't silly really and I'll tell you right now
|
If you don't learn to read then you can't read your Bible
|
And you won't get to heaven 'cause you wont know how
|
Looka here Huck, now you better think it over
|
Do you wanna be a loafer like your pappy is now
|
You better learn to read and you better learn your writin'
|
Or you'll never get to heaven 'cause you wont know how
|
Hey, hey here's the situation concernin' education aggravatin' and how
|
Do you wanna go to heaven
|
Well you better get your lessons or you won't know how
|
Looka here Huck, do you wanna be a feller
|
Like a feller really ought to be
|
I'll tell you right now
|
You better learn to read and you better learn your writin'
|
Or you'll never get to Heaven 'cause you wont know how
