I’m gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
And I am going far beyond the sky
And I’m gonna shout and sing
Until all the heavens ring
When I am bidding this ole world goodbye

I have good news to bring
And that is why I sing
All of my joy with you I’d like to share
And when my ship comes in
I’m gonna leave this world of sin
I’m go sailing through the air

I’m gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
And I am going far beyond the sky
And I’m gonna shout and sing
Until all the heavens ring
When I am bidding this ole world goodbye (good bye, good bye)

I’m gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
And I am going far beyond the sky
And I’m gonna shout and sing (Shout and sing)
Until all the heavens ring (all the heavens ring)
When I am bidding this ole world goodbye

I can scarcely wait
You know I don’t want to be late
I wanna spend my time in prayer
Yes and when my ship comes in
I wanna leave this world of sin
And go sailing through the air

I’m gonna take a trip (Oh Yeah)
In that good old gospel ship
And I am going far beyond the sky (say goodbye to the world)
And I’m gonna shout and sing
Until all the heavens ring
When I am bidding this ole world goodbye (good bye, Good bye)
Good bye Yall

I’m gonna take a trip (gonna take a trip)
In that good old gospel ship
And I am going far beyond the sky
And I’m gonna shout and sing
Until all the heavens ring
When I am bidding this ole world goodbye (good bye, Good bye)
Good bye Yall
Aw don’t you wanna go with me
Good good bye
