Josiah Queen - Die a Beggar Lyrics

You can't love your money
And also love the Lord
I've tried before
And i'd die before I try again

You can't gain fame
And it every satisfy
I've done and tried
It numbed me right down to
My bones

It's impossible
It's impossible

I would rather die a beggar
Then to beg at heaven's gates
Pack the car and burn the bridges
I didn't need them anyway
If no ones riding with me
Then I will travel on my own
I'd rather loose the world before the world
Can gain my soul

I've tried to earn his love
But I really dug a hole
Then I got cold
A mortal soul cant bare that cross
My hands are red
And I am guilty of a multitude of sins
Without the cover of his blood

It's impossible
It's impossible

I would rather die a beggar
Then to beg at heaven's gates
Pack the car and burn the bridges
I didn't need them anyway
If no ones riding with me
Then I will travel on my own
I'd rather loose the world before the world
Can gain my soul

It's Impossible
To gain the world
And have your soul

I would rather die a beggar
Then to beg at heaven's gates
Pack the car and burn the bridges
I didn't need them anyway
If no ones riding with me
Then I will travel on my own
I'd rather loose the world before the world
Can gain my soul

When I die a beggar
And I walk through heavens doors
All the evils of this rotting world
Traded for a home
You can go there with me
And you'll never be alone
You gotta loose the world
Before the world
Can gain your soul
