There'd Be No Need For A Heaven
Porter Wagoner
Have you ever noticed when things were going right something just gotta go wrong
And you don't understand why this must be
But when there's a lotta joy there's gotta be sorrow to make things come out even
Cause this old world is a perfect place there'd be no need for a heaven
(There'd be no need for a heaven if you have heaven below
And when your life was over here you have no place to go)
If things would be like you wanna them be on earth
You wouldn't have to die and leave 'em
If this old world was a perfect place there'd be no need for a heaven
[ steel ]
If you're living in a house that you really love then your neighbors are bad
But that reminds you not to trust in earthly joy
And it makes you wanna live in that heavenly home but there'll be peace forever
If this old world was a perfect place there'd be no need for a heaven
(There'd be no need for a heaven...
If this old world was a perfect place there'd be no need for a heaven
