Two Hands by Townes Van Zandt Lyrics
[Chorus]
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
[Verse 1]
Well now, this old world, sometimes it does get lonesome
And it's many a grown man has hung his head and cried
Ah look down in your soul, there's one that won't desert you
Ain't it fine to have the Savior by your side
[Chorus]
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
[Verse 2]
Now the Lord resides inside a house of golden
And faith is the door and love is the key
Aw and warm is the light pouring from His mighty windows
And that light, my friend, it shines on you and me
[Chorus]
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
[Verse 3]
When the wind blows on that fateful morning
And I close my eyes, Lord, and fly my body home
Well, I don't want my friends to cry no tears about me
I'll be bathing in the glory of the throne
[Chorus]
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
[Verse 1]
Well now, this old world, sometimes it does get lonesome
And it's many a grown man has hung his head and cried
Ah look down in your soul, there's one that won't desert you
Ain't it fine to have the Savior by your side
[Chorus]
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
[Verse 2]
Now the Lord resides inside a house of golden
And faith is the door and love is the key
Aw and warm is the light pouring from His mighty windows
And that light, my friend, it shines on you and me
[Chorus]
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
[Verse 3]
When the wind blows on that fateful morning
And I close my eyes, Lord, and fly my body home
Well, I don't want my friends to cry no tears about me
I'll be bathing in the glory of the throne
[Chorus]
Well, I got two hands, I wanna clap my hands together
I got two legs, I'm gonna dance to heaven's door
I got one heart, I'm gonna fill it up with Jesus
And I ain't gonna think about trouble anymore
