Lyrics
?BROKE THE LOCK ON HEAVENS DOOR?
Timothy Lee Horlacher
Copyright 1990
When he came into the church one Sunday, there was quite a crowd around
You should have seen their faces when he walked in and sat down
When the preacher gave the invitation, he came walk?n cross the floor
It was the day that Luther Johnson, Broke The Lock On Heavens Door
And the Devil, took a blow
Cause he may take his body, but he?ll never take his soul
And the city, lost a sore
On the day that Luther Johnson, Broke The Lock On Heavens Door
Luther was a rough and drunken gambler and his life was full of sin
If he had died and tried to go to Heaven, well he never would get in
But he?s changed into a different man and works now for the Lord
And he preaches now at a Little Church and holds a seat on the City Board
And the Devil, took a blow
Cause he may take his body, but he?ll never take his soul
And the city, lost a sore
On the day that Luther Johnson, Broke The Lock On Heavens Door
?On the day that Luther Johnson, Broke The Lock On Heavens Door
