Lyrics
Somewhere in the distance, out there up around the bend My journey will be over, though I don’t know where or when But when the trumpets blow, and it’s time for me to go Read these words so everyone will know (to) Bury me in bare feet when you put me in the ground Save the shoes for someone left behind to walk around I have my assurance based on everything I’m told You don’t need shoes to walk the streets of gold In the misty morning when it’s time to say goodbye Sing a song of celebration; tell ‘em not to cry And the leave the casket open so my feet can see the sky Maybe one who passes it will stop and ask you why (I said to)
