Story behind the song
First written around 2002, this new version features a miraculous choir of some of my best talented internet friends.
Lyrics
Everybody's got something to preach Doesn't matter who you are Or if you're out of reach Who are you to tell me I'm going straight to hell 'Cause everybody's got something to preach Something to sell I met a crazy street preacher on the corner just the other day, shoutin' at everybody passin' by He said I'd better change my ways if I wanna get saved For when his spaceship comes to take everybody away Everybody's got something to preach Doesn't matter who you are Or if you're out of reach Who are you to tell me I'm going straight to hell 'Cause everybody's got something to preach Something to sell I know a guy who's a non-believer Thinks we're all alone in this universe Tries so hard to make me see things his way, oh yeah I guess misery just loves company Everybody's got something to preach Doesn't matter who you are Or if you're out of reach Who are you to tell me I'm going straight to hell 'Cause everybody's got something to preach Something to sell And when I die, I guess I'll really know for sure What's waiting out there in heaven on the other side People everywhere tryin' to find their way You go your way, I'll go mine Still I hope to see you on the other side

Catchy Country swinger! Enjoyed the melody line - vocals are well done and fit the song just right. Collabs are a lot of fun, and this one sounded like a blast ; )) Cheers, Bob / RedEyeC

Bill, Not sure what my take away on this track is - you seem to be advocating a God-fearing belief, just not sure where you come down. Excellent arrangment, especially the last 1:30. That female back up vocalist is a keeper! ;-) Great job and you deserve all this success. Johnny

Bill, "EVERYBODY'S GOT SOMETHING TO PREACH 2008" is a well-written song with a catchy chorus! You express your thoughts well in this one and it is a good collaboration of soundclick talent. Very powerful lyrics. I conveyed a similar message in my Rap song: ONE JUDGE RAP. Thanks for stopping by. All the best.
