Gordon Lightfoot Gonna but me a long white robe I'm gonna buy me a long white robe Yes Lord to help me home And when I get my heavenly gown Yes Lord to get me home And I lay my burden down I'm gonna get me a long white robe to get me home I'm gonna buy me two golden slippers I'm gonna buy me two golden slippers Yes Lord to walk me home Yes Lord to walk me home And when I get my slippers of gold Then the Lord will have my soul I'm gonna get me two golden slippers to get me home I'm gonna buy me two wings of silver Yes Lord to fly me home Yes Lord to fly me home Then an angel choir will sing I'm gonna buy me two wings of silver And when I get my silvery wings I'm gonna get me two wings of silver to get me home I'm gonna buy me a poor man's trouble I'm gonna buy me a poor man's trouble Yes Lord to help me home Yes Lord to help me home And when I get my trouble and woe Then homeward I will go I'm gonna get a little trouble and woe to get me home I'm gonna find me a smilin' angel I'm gonna get me a smilin' angel Yes Lord to lead me home I know the Lord will understand And when he takes me by the hand I'm gonna get me a smilin' angel to lead me home Yes Lord to lead me home I'm gonna get me a smilin' angel to lead me home |
