I Want That Crown
Parody of "I Won't Back Down" by Tom Petty
(1 Corinthians 9:24-27, 2 Timothy 2:5)
Well, I want that crown
So I run track now
Using stamina and I'll pace myself
So I don't pass out
Well, I've planned my route
Won't be runnin' wild
And I'll keep this world from flaggin' me down
‘Cause I am God's child
And I want that crown
(I want that crown)
Hey, baby, there ain't no pleasin' the crowd
(I want that crown)
Hey, I -- will stay on my route
And I won't crack now
Well, I focus my
Eyes on just one prize
And I will not keep on lookin' all around
Till the finish line
Got a one-track mind
(My one-track mind)
Hey, baby, read First Corinthians 9
(My one-track mind)
Hey, yeah – it's there you'll find
(My one-track mind)
‘Bout a one-track mind
LEAD
(I want that crown)
Hey, baby, there ain't no pleasin' the crowd
(I want that crown)
Hey, I -- want that crown
(I want that crown)
Hey, baby, there ain't no pleasin' the crowd
(I want that crown)
Hey, I – will stay on my route
(I want that crown)
Till I've won that crown
(I want that crown)
You know, I want that crown
1 Corinthians 9:24-25
Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the
prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the
games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last,
but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.
