Round, round, I wanna go round
|
wanna see the rock of ages
|
when my body gives out
|
gonna read the final pages
|
|
Oh, my mother who's gone
|
she told me I should meet her
|
Someday streets of gold
|
Gonna guide me on to greet her
|
|
Once my father sat down
|
and told me of the prophets
|
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
|
they're gone but not forgotten
|
|
Round, round, I wanna go round
|
wanna see the rock of ages
|
til my body gives out
|
gonna read the gospel pages
|
|
Moses heard a voice
|
it called him up the mountain
|
forty days had set
|
when Moses come a shoutin'
|
|
Round, round, I wanna go round
|
wanna see the rock of ages
|
when my body gives out
|
gonna read the final pages
|
|
Round, round, I wanna go round
|
wanna see the rock of ages
|
til my body gives out
|
gonna read the gospel pages
|
|
Round, round, I wanna go round
|
wanna see the rock of ages
|
when my body gives out
|
gonna read the final pages
