I never cared that much about a high society All those material things don't mean that much to me I never wanted to fly up into space I've got my handful down here waiting on judgment day It's gonna be alright when I die, so pray for me That I'll make it to the other side It's gonna be okay, don't cry I might be somewhere way up high You might be rich, you might be poor All the money in the world, it won't get you in the door And I hope you're not too late 'cause it ain't no reservations I can't know what's in your place It's gonna be alright when I die, so pray for me That I'll make it to the other side It's gonna be okay, don't cry I might be somewhere way up high I was a sinner and a fool Again caught up in this rat race Like most people do but I must be getting old 'Cause instead of saving my money I've been trying to save my soul It's gonna be alright when I die, so pray for me That I'll make it to the other side It's gonna be okay, don't cry I might be somewhere way up high You better believe me You better believe, oh yeah It's gonna be alright when I die, pray for me That I'll make it to the other side It's gonna be okay, don't cry I might be, oh yeah, somewhere way up high You better believe me, oh yeah Oh yeah, somewhere way up high It's gonna be alright, oh yeah You better believe me, believe me Somewhere way up high It's gonna be alright when I die, pray for me I'll make it to the other side You better believe me, oh lord I might be somewhere way up high I'm going up high I got to leave here one day Go somewhere way up high Ooh, oh lord, you better believe me Somewhere way up high
