Great Journey

[Chorus]
I'm going on a great, great journey, a better home to find
When Jesus calls me, I'll be ready to leave this world behind

[Verse 1]
I've had enough of drinking whiskey
Mama asked me before she died:
Trade your bottle for a Bible
Join me on the Other Side

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm going on a great, great journey, a better home to find
When Jesus calls me, I'll be ready to leave this world behind

[Verse 2]
Give my guitar to my Daddy
He stood by me for so long
Give my fiddle to my brother
Bid them play a happy song

[Chorus]
Because I'm going on a great, great journey, a better home to find
When Jesus calls me, I'll be ready to leave this world behind

[Verse 3]
Here's some whiskey I left for you
Everybody take a turn
Float my pine box in the river
Light it up and watch it burn

[Chorus]
I'm going on a great, great journey, a better home to find
When Jesus calls me, I'll be ready to leave this world behind

I'm going on a great, great journey, a better home to find
When Jesus calls me, I'll be ready to leave this world behind
