merle haggard - shores of jordan lyrics

Loading...

i looked up into heaven thought i’d solve life’s mysteries
i observed the constellations for a clue to my destiny
but the rhyme of life confounds me, things will be as they will be
so i’ll just dance the shores of jordan ’til the angels carry me

gonna let my feet go dancing to my very favorite song
’cause i know my time for leaving is bound to come before too long
and there ain’t no way of me knowing how tomorrow’s gonna be
so i’ll just dance the shores of jordan ’til the angels carry me

i traveled to a prison saw my share of shattered dreams
were the tables slightly tilted, i could be bound, they could be free
but i believe no tear goes wasted and so i fell there on my knees
vowed i’d dance the shores of jordan ’til the angels carried me

i’m gonna let my feet go dancing to my very favorite songs
’cause i know my time for leaving is bound to come before too long
now there ain’t no way of me knowing how tomorrow’s gonna be
so i’ll just dance the shores of jordan ’til the angels carry me

i saw a weary traveller heading down a dusty road
and i said, “friend, may i help you, seems you haul a heavy load”
but he said, “though my burden’s heavy, in my heart i’m travelling light
so i can cross old river jordan when i’m called to the other side”

i’m gonna let my feet go dancing to my very favorite songs
’cause i know my time for leaving is bound to come before too long
ain’t no way of me knowing how tomorrow’s gonna be
so i’ll just dance the shores of jordan ’til the angels carry me
i’ll just dance the shores of jordan ’til the angels carry me, carry me
