When I Leave

Preacher said a day is comin’
When a trumpet sound and the ground starts hummin’
There ain’t no use in hiding or runnin’
Say your prayers
Keep your fingers crossed

I just try to do the right thing
Pray for rain, but not for lightning
Say my piece, without the fighting
But I can’t be found without gettin’ lost

When I leave, maybe I’ll go to heaven
When I leave, maybe I’ll go to someplace else
Sister don’t grieve if you believe I’m unforgiven
Sometimes it’s hard to tell

Here today, gone tomorrow
Satisfied, then full of sorrow
Slow to give, quick to borrow
But I tried my hardest not to sin

Packin’ up all my belongings
Leave my lonesome and my longing
Nothin’ but my spirit on me
I’m gonna go someplace I’ve never been

When I leave, maybe I’ll go to heaven
When I leave, maybe I’ll go to someplace else
Sister don’t grieve if you believe I’m unforgiven
Sometimes it’s hard to tell

It’s hard to tell

Preacher said a day is comin’
When a trumpet sound and the ground starts hummin’
There ain’t no use in hiding or runnin’
Say your prayers
Keep your fingers crossed
