There ain't no sense in lying I know that I'm dying my friends My body is leaving, I know d**h is reeling me in I can see all your faces and feel your good graces within My spirit is soaring although my old body won't mend Tattered up pages and the wisdom of sages won't help There ain't a cure for a place so impure I don't doubt I'm sorry to leave you but know that ol' d**h ain't the end I will see you in the Kingdom of Light When our souls meet again Oh, Lord Oh, Lord Oh, Lord I'm coming home to you Lord Oh, Lord Oh, Lord Oh, Lord I'm coming home to you Lord Hold my old hand and I'll kiss you like when we were young
My spirits alive I ain't leaving till my song is sung I can hear that old Devil licking at the air with his tongue My Lord will cut him in half as I hang from the rungs We've been on a path that has left us with laughter and cheer I wouldn't trade nothing for what we have done in our years So call off the dogs, let d**h in here and tell him I'm here Cause my spirit is yours and I'll love you forever my dear Oh, Lord Oh, Lord Oh, Lord I'm coming home to you Lord Oh, Lord Oh, Lord Oh, Lord I'm coming home to you Lord I am coming home to you Lord
