You Must Unload
Ry Cooder written by Alfred Reed
[Verse 1}
C F C
Now you fashion-loving christians sure give me the blues
C G
You must unload, you must unload
C
You'll never get to heaven in your jewel-encrusted high-heel shoes
You must, you must unload
[Chorus]
F Am F C
For the way is straight and narrow and few are in the road
C G
Brothers and sisters, there is no other hope
C F C
If you'd like to get to heaven and watch eternity unfold
C G C
You must, you must unload
[Verse 2]
C F G
And you money-loving christians, you refuse to pay your share
C Am G
You must unload, you must unload
C F C
Trying to get to heaven on the cheapest kind of fare
C G F C
You must, you must unload
[Chorus]
F Am F C
For the way is straight and narrow and few are in the road
C G
Brothers and sisters, there is no other hope
C F C
If you'd like to get to heaven and watch eternity unfold
C G C
You must, you must unload
[Verse 3]
C F C
And you power-loving christians in your fancy dining cars
C Am C
You must unload, you must unload
C F C
We see you drinking whiskey and smoking big cigars
C G C F C
You must, you must unload
[Chorus]
F Am F C
For the way is straight and narrow and few are in the road
C G
Brothers and sisters, there is no other hope
C F C
If you'd like to get to heaven and watch eternity unfold
C G C
You must, you must unload
