Lyrics

You Don't Owe Me Nothing

written by Steve Taylor
Copyright © 1985 C.A. Music/Birdwing Music (ASCAP)

There was a time in Christendom
The road to God was hard to tread
'Til charlatans in leisure suits
Saw dollars dancing in their heads

CHORUS

You don't owe me nothing
You don't owe me nothing
You don't owe me nothing
You don't owe me nothing

I heard her say she struck a deal
Her faith will bring in money bags
I'm heading for the mercy seat
My goodness looks like dirty rags

(CHORUS)

Need I even say
you don't owe me nothing
why did you give it anyway?

I know you'll give me what I need
they say I need a shopping mall
I claim the victory over greed
Lord Jesus, I surrender all

(CHORUS)

Notes and Interpretations

To come.
