The Blind Boys of Alabama - Stay on the Gospel Side Lyrics




A long time ago, they put me on a train in Selma, Alabama
And I rode that train all the way to Talla...Talladega
My poppa said son,
You better educate your mind
So he sent me away to a school for the blind.
I guess there were good times and I know there were bad
But I never blamed the Lord for the trouble I had
Oh I just stayed on the gospel side. Stayed on the gospel side
There w
As a teacher there that soaked a rope in water overnight
And I was bound to get a whuppin' If I did wrong or if I did right
I was lost sometimes but now I'm found
Amazing Grace how sweet the sound.
One night on the radio I heard the Golden Gate Quartet.
I started singing for the Lord, and I ain't stopped singing yet
I stayed on the gospel side
I stayed on the gospel side
I've seen the sinners and the sanctified, but I stayed on the gospel side
Well my work is done and I'm finally going home to see my
Maker
Nothing scares me in this world no more, not the devil or the undertaker
I'll finally see my father's face, hold my mother close and feel her grace
And I just stayed on the gospel side
I stayed on the gospel side
I've seen the sinner and the sanctified, but I stayed on the gospel side
I stayed on the gospel side
I've seen the sinner and the sanctified
