Lyrics
Some people go to school tryna learn how to teach
Some people go to school tryna learn how to preach
But if you can't preach without goin' school
Brother, you're ain't no preacher, you're an educated fool
And that's all (that's all, that's all)
And that's all
You'd better change your way of livin'
'Cause the good Lord say that's all
Now a feller I know is a miser man
Tryna save all the money that he can
But when the undertaker lets him down
Where's he gonna spend that money under the ground?
And that's all
And that's all
You'd better change your way of livin'
'Cause the good Lord say that's all
Now a man come from monkey some people say
But the Good Book, brother, just don't tell it that way
And if you believe that monkey tale like some folks do
I'd rather be that monkey than you
And that's all (that's all, that's all)
And that's all
You'd better change your way of livin'
'Cause the good Lord say that's all
Well, my little song is ended and my little song is through
And I didn't necessarilly mean this song for you
But if you don't like the way the little song goes
Well, it's a mighty good sign that I've been tromping on your toes
And that's all
And that's all
You'd better change your way of livin'
'Cause the good Lord say that's all
That's all
