god don't own a car

i have been out wanderin'

i have traveled far

one conclusion i have made

is god don't own a car

he don't wear no fancy clothes

he'd rather take the bus

he would pay air tourist fare

so he could sit with us

he don't have no tambourine

guitar or slide trombone

the music we make here on earth

but the words are his own

and when we finally reach his home

and walk among the stars

he'll join our band then we'll understand

why god don't own a car
