LONG TIME TRAVELIN'
Chorus:
I'm a long time travelin' here below,
I'm a long time travelin' away from my home.
I'm a long time travelin' here below,
Gonna lay this ole' body down.
1. Ye fleeting charms of earth farewell
Your springs of joy are dry
My soul now seeks another home
A brighter world on high
2. When I can read my titles clear
To my mansions in the sky
I'll bid farewell to every fear
And I'll wipe my weepin' eye.
3. Farewell my friends whose tender care
has long engaged my love
Your fond embrace I now exchange
For better friends above.
