Charlie Musselwhite - Bedside of a Neighbor lyrics

Well, I was standing by the bedside of a neighbor Who was just about to cross a swellin' tide And I asked him if he would do me a favor Kindly take this message to the other side If you see my Saviour tell him that you saw me When you saw me I was on my way You may meet some friends who ask about me Just tell 'em I'm comin' home someday So, you might make this journey home without me As the debt man must be paid When you reach that goal and sitting think about me And don't forget to tell my Savior what I say You may chance to meet my mother or my father Some friends that I can't recall You may chance to meet my sister or my brother But just try to see my Savior first of all Well, I was standing by the bedside of a neighbor Who was just about to cross a swellin' tide And I asked him if he would do me a favor Kindly take this message to the other side
