When you get to heaven I'll be there

If I should go first and have to leave you

To face this life alone with all its cares

Darling don't forget you'll find me waiting

To help you climb up heaven's golden stairs

When you get to heaven I'll be waiting when you get to heaven I'll be there

Just inside the pearly gates darling that's where I'll wait

When you get to heaven I'll be there

[ guitar - steel ]

Sometimes this old road gets rough and rocky

Sometimes you may wonder what's the use

But darling keep your chin up and keep smiling

Inside heaven's door I'll wait for you

When you get to heaven...

When you get to heaven I'll be there
