Well, I'm gonna take a trip
In the good ole' gospel ship
I'm going way beyond the sky
You know that I'm gonna shout and sing
Until the heavens ring
When I bid this old world goodbye
You know that I'm gonna take a trip,
In the good ole gospel ship
I'm going far beyond the sky
And I'm gonna shout and sing
Until the heavens ring
When I'm bidding this world goodbye
Bye, bye world
And I can hardly wait
And you know I don't wanna be late
I'm gonna spend all my time,
Time in prayer
So that when my ship comes in
I'm gonna leave this world of sin and go sailing through the air
Well I'm gonna take a trip
In the good old gospel ship
I'm going far beyond the sky
I'm gonna shout and sing
Until the heavens ring
When I'm bidding this old world goodbye
Bye, bye, bye
Good-bye world
