A rich young ruler came one day, to ask about the narrow way
But his hair was too long, and he couldn't be saved
The preacher looked at him through tears
And said, "Your problems on your ears"
If your hair's too long, there's sin in your heart

If your hair's on your ears, there's sin in your heart
Get it cut today, and make a new start
You'll live a life of fear and dread with a tangled mess upon your head
If your hair's too long, there's sin in your heart

My friend if you will enter there, you'll not go there with your long hair
If your hair's too long, therе's sin in your heart
Oh there'll bе hell with those I fear who wear their hair upon their ears
If your hair's too long, there's sin in your heart

If your hair's on your ears, there's sin in your heart
Get it cut today, and make a new start
You'll live a life of fear and dread with a tangled mess upon your head
If your hair's too long, there's sin in your heart

If your hair's on your ears, there's sin in your heart
Get it cut today, and make a new start
You'll live a life of fear and dread if you listen to the Grateful Dead
If your hair's too long, there's sin in your heart
If your hair's too long, there's sin in your heart
