I say, my Jesus
I say, my Jesus
Oh, oh, oh
I say, my Jesus gonna be
He gonna be here soon
He gonna cover us up with leaves
And a blanket from the moon
With a promise and a vow
And a lullaby for my brow
I say my Jesus gonna be
He gonna be here soon
I ain't gonna do nothing but wait here
I don't have to shout
I got no reason
And I ain't got no doubt
I'm gonna make myself unfurl
From this mortal coil, dark world
I say, my Jesus gonna be
He gonna be here soon
I gonna keep my eyes open
So I can see my Lord
I'm gonna watch Him rising
From my brand new Ford
I can be there rolling down a lane
I said, honey would be Thy name
I said, my Jesus gonna be
He gonna be here soon
Gonna keep myself faithful
You know that I been so good
Except for drinking
But I knew that I would
I'm gonna leave this place better
Than the way I found it was
I say my Jesus gonna be
He gonna be here soon
