Lyrics Iris DeMent

Iris DeMent

I Don't Want to Get Adjusted

(To This World)

In this world we have our trials

Sometimes lonesome, sometimes blue

But the hope of life eternal

Makes all old hopes brand new

And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world

I've got a home so much better

And I'm gonna go there sooner or later

And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world

Lord, I'm growing old and weary

And there's no place that feels like home

Saviour come,

To where I

And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world

I've got a home so much better

And I'm gonna go there sooner or later

And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world

And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world
