[Johnny] I believe my steps are growing wearier each day Still I´ve got another journey on my mind Lures of this old world have ceased to make me want to stay
And my one regret is leaving you behind
[June] But if it proves to be His will that I am first to cross And somehow I´ve a feeling it will be When it comes your time to travel likewise, don´t feel lost For I will be the first one that you´ll see
[Johnny & June] And I´ll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan I´ll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout And come running through the shallow water, reaching for your hand
[Johnny] Through this life we´ve laboured hard to earn our meager fare It´s brought us trembling hands and failing eyes
[June] So I´ll just rest here on this shore and turn my eyes away Until you come, then we´ll see paradise
[Johnny & June] And I´ll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan I´ll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout And come running through the shallow water, reaching for your hand
[ Johnny & June] I´ll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan I´ll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout And come running through the shallow water, reaching for your hand, hmm
