Well, some folks say that life is just a veil of tears
Not me, man, I can't pack enough into these years
I don't care if it's spring, summer, winter or fall
I make no fuss about the seasons 'cause I like 'em all
Here on earth, I'll have my cake
I'm gonna eat it too, make no mistake
'Cause if it's a question of to be or not to be
I'll put on my boots and go see what I can see
My grandpa, a good Christian life he led
Worked like a dog just to put a roof over his head
He said that when he'd die, he'd get his reward
'Cause Heaven's a place where you don't pay room and board
Here on earth, I'll have my cake
I'm gonna eat it too, make no mistake
'Cause if it's a question of to be or not to be
Put on my boots and go see what I can see
When I die, I hope I don't die too slow
But slow or quick, I hope Heaven is the place I go
Old St. Pete, gonna serve me my pie in the sky
And I'll say "Pete, a side of ice cream, if you don't mind"
Here on earth, I'll have my cake
I'm gonna eat it too, make no mistake
'Cause if it's a question of to be or not to be
Put on my boots and go see what I can
Put on my boots, go see what I can
I put on my boots, go see what I can see
