Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil
Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven

Give us this day our daily bread
They led me up to the Pearly Gates and said, "What's up?"
Then the Gates shut, now I'm stuck
Rotting in a stinking hole 300 months
Then the Devil turned to me and said "It's me you want
I can give you all the power over anyone
Put it this way: you want new life, I'll give you one
Have faith in me, I'm only being genuine"
I contemplated, could it be he ran a planet
Or was banished, the blood dripped from his bandish
Just outlandish, I still didn't overstand it
I took a long look in his eyes and he vanished

Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil
Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel
Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil
Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel

Heavenly bodies lined up at the gate
Wind up in purgatory, story of your own fate
Not one person dressed in white
It's a curse or plight, best of life, worst of death, burst of light
As the lost angels descended down to the ground
From a mist of clouds, standing amongst the foul
Was [?], universal order now
The borders crowd, the souls are sorted out somehow
I hear the violins and said, "Let's try again"
I took the side again, I looked into his eye again
And he was frying in the pit that he was lying in
I held my head down, said I didn't wanna die again

Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil
Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel
Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil
Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto
Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel
