Buddy Jewell - When I'm Good and Gone lyrics

[Verse 1] I hope they find my King James Bible Worn around the edges, and opened to the Book of John And my favorite picture we made together Down by Mill Creek when you were just twenty-one [Verse 2] I hope they're laying there beside your old love letters The ones that read just like a song I hope they find more good than bad When I'm good and gone [Verse 3] I hope my babies make good neighbors The kind you know that are never gonna let ya down And I hope they teach their sons and daughters the things I taught 'em while I was still around [Verse 4] And when they lay me down I hope the sun is shining And there's lots of flowers and that line of cars is long Because they found more good than bad When I'm good and gone [Chorus] I ain't leaving here today as far as I can see I got a list of things I plan on getting to Oh but how and when I leave this ol' world ain't up to me So when the good Lord says my time on earth is through [Verse 5] I hope He finds more good than bad I hope He finds my King James Bible Worn around the edges, and opened to the Book of John
