Gabriel’s Mother’s Highway Ballad #16 Blues
[Verse 1]
I woke up this mornin' with my head in my hands
Come on, children, come on
The snow was a-fallin' all over the land
Come on, children, come on
[Verse 2]
I don't know but I've been told
Come on, children, come on
That the streets of Heaven have all been sold
Come on, children, come on
[Chorus]
Come on children, oh come home
Jesus gonna make you well
Come on, people, it's time to go
Go to where a man can dwell
[Verse 3]
Well, the sun come up while I wrote this song
Come on, children, come on
You remember me that it won't be long
Come on, children, come on
[Chorus]
Come on, children, oh come home
Jesus gonna make you well
Come on, people, it's time to go
Go to where a man can dwell
[Verse 4]
Come on, Gabriel, blow that thing
Come on, children, come on
All God's children got to dance and sing
Come on, children, come on
[Verse 5]
All God's children got to sing and shout
Come on, children, come on
Ain't nobody 'round here to kick you out
Come on, children, come on
[Verse 6]
One of these days we will all be there
Come on, children, come on
Seeing those wheels way up in the air
Come on, children, come on
[Verse 7]
Come on, everybody, tell me what's it worth
Come on, children, come on
To make a sand right out of this earth
Come on, children, come on
[Chorus]
Come on people, oh come home
Jesus gonna make you well, well, well, well
Come on, children, children, come on
Let us go to where a man can dwell
[Verse 1]
I woke up this mornin', Lord, my head in my hand
Come on, children, come on
Snow was a-fallin' all over the land
Come on, children, come on
[Outro]
I don't know, somewhere I've been told
Come on, children, come on
That the streets of Heaven
