If I were to die tomorrow,
I know right now what my Lord would say,
he'd say, "Go-on ahead, go-on ahead,
You lived your life well, now go-on ahead,"
If I were to die today,
I wouldn't carry with me no bags of sorrow,
say, "Go-on ahead, go-on ahead,
you lived your life well, now go-on ahead,"
I ain't claiming no sanctity,
my life ain't been no straight pine tree,
say, "Go-on ahead, go-on ahead,
you lived your life well, now go-on ahead,"
I ain't saying I been narrow,
been winding all over like an old magnolia,
say, "Go-on ahead, go-on ahead,
you lived your life well, now go-on ahead,"
I went down to the old boneyard other night,
saw my pappy playin cards in a young man's skin,
betting 10 times his size,
but I know'd that devil'd win
bury the dead right where you find 'em,
to take 'em home will leave you blinded,
say, "Go-on ahead, go-on ahead,
you lived your life well, now go-on ahead,"
bury the dead right where you find 'em,
to take 'em home will leave you blinded,
say, "Go-on ahead, go-on ahead,
you lived your life well, now go-on ahead,"
you lived your life well, now go-on ahead...
