| Lyrics:Jimmy Buffett Music:Jimmy Buffett | |
| Chorus: | |
| It's a hell of a time to be thinking about heaven | |
| Didn't you forget the golden rule | |
| You've been acting like Jesus owes you a favor | |
| But he's a little smart for you to fool | |
| You complain how you forgets the gospel | |
| You remind them seek and you shall find | |
| Maybe youth will have a time for seeking | |
| After they clean up what you left behind | |
| Chorus: | |
| 'Cause it's a hell of a time to be thinking about heaven | |
| Didn't you forget the golden rule | |
| You've been acting like Jesus owes you a favor | |
| But he's a little smart for you to fool | |
| You were right there when the plate was passed last Sunday | |
| That's the second time you've been to church all year | |
| Could you really call yourself a christian | |
| If charity cost half as much as beer | |
| Hey | |
| You pray a little more as you grow older | |
| You get religion as your hair turns gray | |
| But you don't need to worry about hereafter | |
| Just worry what you're going to do today | |
| Chorus: | |
| 'Cause it's a hell of a time to be thinking about heaven | |
| Didn't you forget the golden rule | |
| You've been acting like Jesus owes you a favor | |
| But he's a little smart for you to fool | |
| Yes my friend I think you've blown your cool | |
| Hey |
