Текст песни Get There When I Get There - Bob Wayne

When I was a young boy, in tongues they all would speak
I was forced to hold their water, and the pastor washed my feet
I was baptized by a gambler who's now living on the streets
And he told me hell was waiting
Hell, you can wait for me

As I sail oh, ho
I'll get there when I get there
And oh, ho, I will get there when I come
And all the righteous will sit there
While the sinner's answer the call

It's been a long, long time since I've been back home
I've been around the world, and I know where I belong
Where the demons, they can't trick me
I don't believe those gospel songs
And even though I know the words, I still won't sing along

But I sing, oh, ho
I'll get there when I get there
And oh, ho, I will get there when I come
And all the righteous, they just sit there
While the sinner's answer the call
