Lyrics
Verse 1
I won’t be caught dead hauling
Treasures that were never mine.
I got my eyes set on heaven
I’m banking on a better prize.
Don’t want to look back and find
It was all just a waste of time.
I won’t be caught dead
I won’t be caught dead.
Chorus
Who needs the world? I got Jesus!
Who needs the world? I got Jesus!
I don’t need money fame cars or clothes
'Cause I got the Father Son and Holy Ghost!
Who needs the world? I got Jesus!
Oh I got Jesus! (Oh oh oh oh!)
Verse 2
I meant what I said. I found it
Something so clearly divine.
Went down to the river tasted
Something much sweeter than wine.
When the Word splits the eastern sky
I'll come running leave this life of mine.
I meant what I said.
I won’t be caught dead.
Bridge
From the eastern shore to Californ
And anywhere in between
He’s better than anything you’ve ever dreamed!
