When it`s all over but the shoutin`
When God the Father`s done his final accounting
And I find out that I made the cut
Boys i`m gonna get me a chariot
Yeah a big gold eagle on the hood
Trans Am chariot

Gonna find my great granddaddy
That peace pipe smokin` Cherokee
Gonna get him all schooled
In them mags and struts
Then we gonna drag us a chariot
Yeah a big gold eagle painted on the hood chariot

[CHORUS]

Good lord Witchita
Sure hope Samson ain`t no law dog
Redneck you better out run him
Damn sure don`t wanna get caught
Crime what crime
We was all hopped up on new wine
And mama`s gonna kill me if I get
Kicked out of the choir
But you just gotta run them chariots

[RAP]

Now here`s a little story happened long ago
One day Ezekiel went out for a stroll
Walkin` by the river low and behold
Down came 4 angels in a Cadillac gold
He said "swing down sweet chariot come on and give me a ride"
So they scooped em up, the rig was souped up, man it had TV`s inside
Ol` Zeke was surprised cause his eyes had seen beyond
His wildest dreams, He`d go on to see a thousand things

We`ll paint that number eight on the driver`s side
That`s how old I was when I gave Jesus my life
I stepped right up and got washed in the blood
Just a little kid singin` `bout a chariot

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

When it`s all over but the shoutin`...
