Can someone transcribe the lyrics for the song 'Nobody Saved But Me' sung by Kingsmen Quartet in the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMq2uNN-tYA. There are also a few more videos of them singing this song and I'd like to get the lyrics complete.

This is what I transcribed so far
Not sure all the words are correct
Note a "?'s" to be filled in ...

If there's Nobody Saved but me oh Lord If there's nobody saved but me
What kind of heaven would God's heaven be if there's nobody saved but me

When the Lord saved me from sin with His mighty Love within
everybody in the church looked good to me
They may have had some little faults but that I couldn't see
I was a-busy praising God for victory
But one day when brother Ed passed me by and turned his head
I said he think he's too good to speak to me
and if he don't change his way I just know he can't be saved
I don't think he ever had much anyway
And I know that Sister King when she gets up there to sing
she's just putting on a show for folks to see
when they all begin to shout I just cannot help but doubt
they're all a bunch of hypocrites but me

If there's Nobody Saved but me oh Lord If there's nobody saved but me
What kind of heaven would God's heaven be if there's nobody saved but me

Then I've heard the other day that our pastor Brother Ray
was in trouble with the law in Tennessee
I don't know this to be true but I think that I am through
'cause he got to where he was a-preaching right at me
so I quit the church and said that the members were all dead
and no good in anybody could I see
I always found a flaw in everybody that I saw
they're just all a bunch of hypocrites but me

Then I said how can this be if there's no one saved but me
someone must be ? out of line
then I began to look around and this is what I found
that the only foot the shoe would fit was mine

If there's Nobody Saved but me oh Lord If there's nobody saved but me
What kind of heaven would God's heaven be if there's nobody saved but me

so I got down on my knees and I said Lord help me please
won't you take me back and try me one more time
won't you teach me how to live, how to love and to forgive
so that I can be a light that'll always shine
well the Lord He heard my prayer and He came and touched me there
and He gave me back a Joy beyond compare
now I'm happy everyday and I'm singing everyday
everybody will be happy over there

Well everybody will be happy over there over there
We'll be shouting ....
