I don't need no religion cos I got the Lord

Don't need to work up to Him cos He came

Down & did it all

Don't need no barefoot pilgrimages

Don't need no porcelain images

Don't need no candles lit

Don't need no penance sit

Don't need no religion

Jesus came & touched me

Don't need no religion

He came down & changed me

Don't need no religion

Don't have to do a thing

Don't need no religion

If I want to it's out of loving Him

By faith

I don't need no religion don't need

No load on my back

No fall down no failure

No asceticism no fall back

I thought that I would work my way

Into God's kingdom someday

But He let me know in time

Now I'm in His kingdom

And He's ruling mine
