Heaven Don't Deserve Me Lyrics - Gordon Lightfoot

I'm not afraid that when I'm dying 

There'll be no one to hold my hand 

If there's a God up there, he loves me 

As much as my old woman can 

I don't intend to be a martyr 

I don't give a damn what people say 

And if I never get to heaven 

Heaven don't deserve me anyway 

I've tasted life both good and evil 

At times I was cruel and did not pay 

And if I never get to heaven 

Heaven don't deserve me anyway 

I don't know what it was I came for 

But I've enjoyed it up 'til now 

If there's a friend who ever needs me 

I'll do my best to help somehow 

I don't intend to keep no secrets 

I don't give a damn what people say 

And if I never get to heaven 

Heaven don't deserve me anyway 

I know and I'll admit my failures 

I don't give a damn what people say 

And if I never get to heaven 

Heaven don't deserve me anyway 

And if I never get to heaven 

Heaven don't deserve me anyway
