Shut That Gate

[Verse 1: Andy Bean]
Oh, while I was dreamin' I dreamed that my life
Had ended, my time had run out
Oh, the angels took me to the big pearly gates
I dreamed I heard someone shout

[Chorus: Andy Bean and Both]
"Oh, shut that gate, and don't let him in
Spend his life livin' in sin
Drinkin' and gamblin', and soppin' of gin
Shut that gate, and don't let him in"

[Verse 2: Andy Bean]
I buckle my seatbelt when I go out drivin'
I look both ways when I cross the lane
Oh, I ain't in a rush to head upstairs early
Cuz I know there'll be somebody sayin'

[Chorus: Andy Bean and Both]
"Oh, shut that gate, and don't let him in
Spend his life livin' in sin
Drinkin' and gamblin', and soppin' of gin
Shut that gatе, and don't let him in"

Shut that gate, now

[Instrumental Break]

I'll shut it with ya, err

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Andy Bean and Both]
Oh, shut that gatе, and don't let him in
Spend his life livin' in sin
Drinkin' and gamblin', and soppin' of gin
Shut that gate, and don't let him in

[Chorus: Andy Bean and Both]
Oh, shut that gate, and don't let him in (Don't let him in)
Spend his life livin' in sin
Drinkin' and gamblin', and soppin' of gin
Shut that gate, and don't let him in
Shut that gate, and don't let him in
Shut that gate, and don't let him in
