Hi smokeynichol, Glad this is the one.
I enjoyed Marvin Morrow's voice
and listened to some of his other tunes ...

I Don't Need a Mansion

Chorus:
I don't need a mansion on a hilltop
just a home in Gloryland's gonna suit me fine
I don't need a fancy car to drive there
Just a set of wings to soar the Eastern (sky?)

Some people work so hard for material things
things down here that just don't satisfy
but I'm laying up my treasure in Heaven above
and I found peace that money just can't buy

Chorus

Now you may criticize me for the way I sing and shout
I'm on my way to Heaven and that's what it's all about
there'll be a lot of praising for those who make it through
through the pearly gates in the skies of blue

Chorus
