Happen the be that a way
You know how to treat everybody you know
But you have to keep belonging to this band

Talk about you down on my knees

I wanna know you ain't no better than Christ
You gonna be talked about anywhere you go
People gonna say all manner of things about you
But you gonna be belonging to the band

Going to heaven, gonna sit right down
Gonna ask my lord for a starry crown

Better get ready and get right for this band
Got to get right for this band
To belong to this band
