I look way down the river
and what do you think I see
I see a band of angels and
Put down your feet on land and sea
But Gabriel don't you blow your trumpet
that can't hold my body down
that can′t hold my body down
When I hear this trumpet sound
I′m gonna right rise out of ground
that can′t hold my body down
meet me in the middle of the air
and if this wings don't fail me,
meet me Mother and Father
meet me by the river road
you know mama that I′ll be there
when I'll check in my load
that can't hold my body down
that can′t hold my body down
When I hear this trumpet sound
I′m gonna right rise out of ground
that can′t hold my body down
meet me in the middle of the air
and if this wings don't fail me, Lord
meet me Mother and Father
meet me by the river road
you know mama that I′ll be there
when I'll check in my load
that can't hold my body down
that can′t hold my body down
that can't hold my body down
that can't hold my body down
