Gonna but me a long white robe
Yes Lord to help me home
I`m gonna buy me a long white robe
Yes Lord to get me home
And when I get my heavenly gown
And I lay my burden down
I`m gonna get me a long white robe to get me home
I`m gonna buy me two golden slippers
Yes Lord to walk me home
I`m gonna buy me two golden slippers
Yes Lord to walk me home
And when I get my slippers of gold
Then the Lord will have my soul
I`m gonna get me two golden slippers to get me home
I`m gonna buy me two wings of silver
Yes Lord to fly me home
I`m gonna buy me two wings of silver
Yes Lord to fly me home
And when I get my silvery wings
Then an angel choir will sing
I`m gonna get me two wings of silver to get me home
I`m gonna buy me a poor man`s trouble
Yes Lord to help me home
I`m gonna buy me a poor man`s trouble
Yes Lord to help me home
And when I get my trouble and woe
Then homeward I will go
I`m gonna get a little trouble and woe to get me home
I`m gonna find me a smilin` angel
Yes Lord to lead me home
I`m gonna get me a smilin` angel
Yes Lord to lead me home
And when he takes me by the hand
I know the Lord will understand
I`m gonna get me a smilin` angel to lead me home
I`m gonna get me a smilin` angel to lead me home
