Round, round, I wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
When my body gives out
Gonna read the final pages.

Oh, my mother who's gone
She told me I should meet her
Someday streets of gold
Gonna guide me on to greet her.

Once my father sat down
And told me of the prophets
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
They're gone but not forgotten.

Round, round, I wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
'Til my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages.

Moses heard a voice
It called him up the mountain
Forty days had set
When Moses come a shoutin'.

Round, round, I wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
When my body gives out
Gonna read the final pages.

Round, round, I wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
'Til my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages.

Round, round, I wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
When my body gives out
Gonna read the final pages...
