Well, Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah He gonna cover us up with leaves With a blanket from the moon, yeah With a promise and a vow And a lullaby for my brow Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah
And I?m not gonna do nothin? but wait here I don?t have to shout, yeah I got me no reason, yeah And I got no doubt, yeah I?m gonna get myself unfurled From this mortal coiled up world Jesus gonna be here Gonna be here soon, yeah
I got to keep my eyes, keep ?em wide open, yeah So I can see my Lord, yeah I?m gonna watch that old horizon For my brand new Ford, yeah Well, I can hear him rolling on down the lane I said Hollywood be thy name Cause Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah
Well, I got to keep myself, I must keep myself faithful And you know that I?ve been so good, yeah Except for drinking But he knew that I would, yeah And then I?m gonna leave this place better Than the way I found that it was And Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah
I know my Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah I know my Jesus gonna be here Gonna be here soon, yeah
