(Billie Holiday)




When I hear them say


There's better living

Let them go their way


To that new living


I won't ever stray

'Cause this is heaven to me





Long as freedom grows

I want to seek it


If it's yes or no


It's me who'll speak it

'Cause the lord, He knows


That this is heaven to me




If you've got your hands


And got your feet


To sing your song





All through the street


You raise your head


When night is done

Shout your thanks up to the sun





So when I hear them say

There's better living


Let them go their way


To that new living

I won't ever stray


'Cause this is heaven to me
