When I Go Away |
| Early in the morning |
| A-when the church bells toll |
| The choir’s gonna sing |
| And the hearse will roll |
| On down to the graveyard |
| Where it’s cold and gray |
| And then the sun’s gonna shine |
| Through the shadows |
| When I go away |
| Don’t want no sorrow |
| For this old orphan boy |
| I don’t want no crying |
| Only tears of joy |
| I’m gonna see my mother |
| Gonna see my father |
| And I’ll be bound for glory |
| In the morning |
| When I go away |
| I’ll be lifted up to the clouds |
| On the wings of an angel |
| There’s only flesh and bones in the ground |
| Where my troubles will stay |
| See that storm over yonder |
| It’s gonna rain all day |
| But then the sun’s gonna shine |
| Through the shadows |
| When I go away |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up) |
| When I go away |
| (No more trouble — I’m going home) |
| (Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more crying |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more trials |
| (I'm going home) |
| Home to leave my worries in the ground |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more troubles |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more crying |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more trials |
| (I'm going home) |
| Home to leave my worries in the graveyard |
| Home to leave my troubles in the graveyard |
| Home to leave my trials |
| And I’ll be bound for glory |
| In the morning |
| When I go away |
| All my kin who love me |
| All my friends who care |
| Look beyond the dark clouds |
| We’re gonna meet up there |
| When they lay me in the cold ground |
| Bow your heads and pray |
| (Bow your heads and pray) |
| And I’ll be bound for glory |
| In the morning |
| When I go away |
| And then the sun’s gonna shine |
| Through the shadows |
| When I go away |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up) |
| When I go away |
| (No more trouble — I’m going home) |
| (Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more crying |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more trials |
| (I'm going home) |
| Home to leave my worries in the graveyard |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more troubles |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more crying |
| (I'm going home — Lift me up — When I go away) |
| No more trials |
| (I'm going home) |
| Home to leave my worries in the graveyard |
| Home to leave my troubles in the graveyard |
| Home to leave my trials |
| And I’ll be bound for glory |
| In the morning |
| When I go away |
| And then the sun’s gonna shine |
| Through the shadows |
| When I go away |
| Ah, when I go away |
| When I go away |
| (When I go away) |
| When I go away |
| (When I go away) |
| When I go away |
