Lyrics
Chorus
It will be alright,
it will be alright,
when I make it to the city
it will be alright.
It will be alright,
it will be alright,
when I make it to the city
it will be alright, yeah.
Verse 1
One of these old mornings,
(hallelujah),
I said it won't be very long,
(hallelujah),
you gonna look for me,
(hallelujah),
and I'll be gone on home,
(hallelujah).
I'm going up to glory,
(halleluah),
that's where I'm gonna sing and shout,
(hallelujah),
and not you and you nor your mamma,
(hallelujah),
will be able to put be out.
Chorus
Verse 2
I was born in Durham, North Carolina,
(hallelujah),
outside the county line,
(hallelujah),
I learned at an early age,
(hallelujah),
that Jesus was a friend of mine,
(hallelujah).
Fifteenth child out of sixteen children,
(hallelujah),
and my mother and father were there,
(hallelujah),
I learned at an early age,
(hallelujah),
that Jesus really cares.
