Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm going down to the church house
Get down on my bended knee
Deacon Jones, pray for me
Deacon Jones, please, pray for me
[Verse 2]
Maybe there ain't no Heaven
Maybe there ain't no Hell
Maybe there ain't no Heaven
No burning Hell
No
[Verse 3]
Hey, hey
[Verse 4]
I'm going down to the crossroads
With no devil, well, I'll make a deal
I'm going down to the crossroads
With no devil, well, I'll make a deal
[Verse 5]
Maybe there ain't no Heaven
No burning Hell
Maybe there ain't no Heaven
No burning Hell
No
[Verse 6]
Hey
[Verse 7]
When I die, where will I go?
When I die, where will I go?
Somebody tell me
Well, somebody tell me
Somebody, please, tell me
Where will I go?
[Verse 8]
Maybe there ain't no Heaven
Maybe there ain't no Hell
No Heaven
No burning Hell
[Verse 9]
Maybe there ain't no Heaven
Maybe there ain't no Hell
Maybe there ain't no Heaven
No burning Hell
No
[Verse 10]
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, yeah, hey, hey
