Subject: Lyr Add:I'M IN HEAVEN WHEN I'M IN MY MOTHER'S ARMS
Naughty little lad acting mighty bad
Wouldn't do his lessons as he should
Teacher shook her head looked at him and said
You'll be sorry if you don't be good
You'll never go to heaven when you die
Then the lad made this reply
I don't have to die to go to heaven
There's a heaven here on earth I love
Where I can hear the voice of an angel
Just as sweet as any angel up above
She's queen of just a plain old rocking chair
When she holds me safe from harm
So I don't have to die to go to heaven
I'm in heaven when I'm in my mother's arms
Repeat second stanza
I listened to the mp3 (provided by Sol) which is quite clear, Louis. There are the 'correct' words. Ain't the folk process wonderful?
