Oh de oh, giddyup All of these flowers For this friend of ours, it´s such a shame
All of these people All of them equally feel the same There´s silence and weeping Looks like he´s sleeping, the children say They say he was ready, I hope he was ready Is the prayer I´m praying When Gabriel begins to blow Victory shall be mine When the horses get ready to go The angels won´t leave me behind
Chorus: I´m gonna be, got to be ready When the chariot comes (When the chariot, when the chariot comes) Said I´m gonna be got to be ready When the chariot comes
(Giddyup)
Over the prairie The pall bearers carry & lay him to rest Satan´s a cheater, Christ is the teacher And life´s the test Oh Lord take me higher Never liked fire, I can´t stay here I gotta get ready, gotta get ready Time has drawn near When Gabriel begins to blows Victory shall be mine When the horses get ready to go The angels won´t leave me behind
Chorus
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray my soul you keep If I die before I wake I pray my soul you take Cause I gotta be ready, when Jesus comes When the chariot comes Gonna be, got to be ready when the chariot comes Said I´m gonna be, got to be ready when the chariot comes
