Topic: `Ain`t no shops`

Know a man
worked hard all his life
saved for security
put money aside
for his older years
so he wouldn`t go without
became a saving habit
which is good in some ways
but all work and no play
finally took their toll
when a friend said
these fateful words
`ain`t no shops in heaven`
even if money to spend
ain`t no shops in heaven
so have a good time now
ain`t no shops in heaven
and that man is me!

Re: `Ain`t no shops`

irony? my wife always likes to say " there's no pockets in shrouds" which is also true. just remebered the theme from "stairway to heaven" the rich think they can buy their way to Gods favours.
