Well my mama said I oughtta be committed
Cnd my daddy said that I oughtta go to church
Cnd the preacher said I oughtta be repentant
Til the day they lay me down in the dirt
But when I go and I get to heaven
I know that I'm gonna get in
Cus I'm just the way
That the good lord made me
Cnd it might be crazy
But it ain't no sin
Well maybe I lay with the wrong kinda lover
Got an achin heart and a worrying mind
Cnd I ain't obeyed my father & mother
But I tell the truth and I try to be kind
So when I go and I get to heaven
I know that I'm gonna get in
Cus I'm just the way
That the good lord made me
Cnd it might be crazy
But it ain't no sin
Hallelujah
How sweet the sound
I was lost
Now I'm found
When I go and I get to heaven
I know that I'm gonna get in
Cus I'm just the way
That the good lord made me
Cnd it might be crazy
But it ain't no sin
