| Now they tell me the streets of heaven
|
| Are paved with diamonds & gold
|
| I may not get there but if I do
|
| I believe I gonna take off my shoes
|
| Gonna walk around heaven
|
| Gonna walk around heaven
|
| Barefooted singing God’s praise
|
| Gonna walk around heaven
|
| Gonna walk around heaven
|
| Where there ain’t no end of days
|
| Ain’t a secret if you know me.
|
| I been no account most of my life
|
| But I been converted and now I got the spirit
|
| So there’s a chance I gonna see this paradise
|
| When I get to heaven preachers tell me
|
| I get a halo some wings and a harp
|
| That’s well and good
|
| But what I do hear
|
| Is Sister Rosetta Tharpe |
