Cash, Johnny - No Earthly Good Lyrics






Come hear me good brothers, come here one and all
Don't brag about standing or you'll surely fall
You're shinin' your light and shine it you should
But you're so heavenly minded you're no earthly good
No earthly good you are no earthly good
You're so heavenly minded you're no earthly good
You're shinin' your light yes and shine it you should
You're so heavenly minded and you're no earthly good

Come hear me good sisters you're salt of the earth
If your salt isn't salted then what is it worth
You could give someone a cool drink if you would
You're so heavenly minded and you're no earthly good
No earthly good you are no earthly good
You're so heavenly minded you're no earthly good
You could give someone a cool drink if you would
You're so heavenly minded and you're no earthly good

If you're holdin' heaven then spread it around
There are hungry hands reaching up here from the ground
Move over and share the high ground where you stood
So heavenly minded you're no earthly good
No earthly good you are no earthly good
You're so heavenly minded you're no earthly good
Move over and share the high ground where you stood
So heavenly minded and you're no earthly good
No earthly good...

    *Lyrics*:

    Come heed me, my brothers, come heed, one and all
    Don't brag about standing or you'll surely fall
    You're shining your light and shine it you should
    But you're so heavenly minded, you're no earthly good
    If you're holding heaven, then spread it around
    There's hungry hands reaching up here from the ground
    Move over and share the high ground where you stood
    So heavenly minded, you're no earthly good
    The gospel ain't gospel until it is spread
    But how can you share it where you've got your head
    There's hands that reach out for a hand if you would
    So heavenly minded, you're no earthly good
    If you're holding heaven, then spread it around
    There's hungry hands reaching up here from the ground
    Move over and share the high ground where you stood
    So heavenly minded, you're no earthly good

    I got to disagree with that the Bible says those who live in the flesh do mind the things of the flesh and those who live in the spirit do mind the things which are in the spirit

    I think this song is about something different than that though. I seen a quote recently that said, "I'd rather attend church with messed up people seeking after God than religious people who think they're His enforcers." I think it's about that. We're all messed up, flawed, fallen short or however you want to put it. We all struggle and we all make progress in different places at different paces. I may be farther along in one area than you are but further behind in an area that your farther ahead. But maybe where I'm ahead is where you're behind, and maybe you don't realize that or the progress that I've made. Don't be an enforcer but be an encourager. God is the one who knows the heart. Let Him do the judging. I think that's what this is about. Don't be so heavenly minded you're no earthly good.

    Aaron King you sir are certainly farther ahead than most people. I hope you stay that way :)
