Ah, that was an easy one. I found it at Cowpie (click) the country lyrics database.

Rusty Old Halo
(written by Bob Miller -or maybe it was Bob Merrill - and recorded by Hoyt Axton and Bill Carlisle)

[G]I know a man, [C]rich as a king, [D7]still he just won't give his [G]neighbors a thing,
He'll get up to heaven [C]someday I bet, [D7]he'll get up to heaven and [G]here's what he'll get

Chorus
[G]A rusty old halo, [C]skinny white cloud, [D7]second hand wings full of [G]patches,
[G]A rusty old halo, [C]skinny white cloud, a [D7]robe that's so wooley that it [G]scratches.

[G]Some people have them [C]big fancy cars, [D7]swimming pools, fur coats, and [G]diamonds in jars,
real silver gates, [C]real golden doors, [D7]they'll get up to heaven and [G]trade them all for
Chorus

[G]While you're on earth you should [C]shine like a star,
[D7]brighten up the corner where [G]ever you are,
doing each day the [C]best you can do,
[D7]that way you'll be sure they'll [G]never hand you
CHORUS
