Tell heaven Now you tell heaven I'm coming I'm coming on home Oh one day Just tell my heaven, my heavenly king Just tell him that I'm coming on the morning train Tell heaven I am coming one day Tell heaven I'm coming on home one day. Lord my burden Lord knows my burden Seems so heavy So hard to bear Hard to bear Lord knows my burden seems hard to bear Lord when I get to heaven I got a crown to wear Tell heaven I am coming one day Tell heaven I'm coming on home one day
Tell my mother Now you tell mother I am coming I'm coming on home Oh one day Just tell my mother now don't she cry She knows her little child was born to die Tell mother I am coming one day Just tell my mother I'm coming on home one day Lord the river Lord knows the river Where the sun that evening sun will never go down Cross on my shoulder, sword in my hand I'm going down fighting in my mother's name Tell heaven I am coming one day Tell heaven I'm coming on home one day
