It won't be so bad to move along without me
And I know you're strong, aint no one stronger
And don't feel so lonely you got friends all around ya.
Say a little prayer, wish me all the luck for my next journey
But don't you worry, I won't be far.
Just please don't bury me with my guitar,
It made us smile and it brought me to where you are.
Where I'm going it won't have much use,
I'd rather it stay here and help remind you of the truth.
When you're gone you're not really gone.
We should spend a lot of time making these harmonies sound fine,
When you've done all you have to do
Come and join me and we'll watch the kids sing too.
When I see that light a shinin', please let me go
I've got work to do on my side and you on your's
When I'm headed toward my glory please let me go my way
Papa told me it would all turn out OK.
Say a little prayer, wish me all the luck for my next journey
But don't you worry, I won't be far.
Just please don't bury me with my guitar,
It made us smile and it brought me to where you are.
Where I'm going it won't have much use,
I'd rather it stay here and help remind you of the truth.
When you're gone you're not really gone.
We should spend a lot of time making these harmonies sound fine,
When you've done all you have to do
Come and join me and we'll watch the kids sing too.
