Lyrics

Tell heaven
Now you tell heaven
I’m coming
I’m coming on home
Oh one day

Just tell my heaven, my heavenly king
Just tell him that I’m coming on the morning train
Tell heaven
I am coming one day
Tell heaven I’m coming on home one day.

Lord my burden
Lord knows my burden
Seems so heavy
So hard to bear
Hard to bear

Lord knows my burden seems hard to bear
Lord when I get to heaven I got a crown to wear

Tell heaven I am coming one day
Tell heaven I’m coming on home one day

Tell my mother
Now you tell mother
I am coming
I’m coming on home
Oh one day

Just tell my mother now don’t she cry
She knows her little child was born to die

Tell mother I am coming one day
Just tell my mother I’m coming on home one day

Lord the river
Lord knows the river
Where the sun that evening sun will never go down
Cross on my shoulder, sword in my hand
I’m going down fighting in my mother’s name

Tell heaven I am coming one day
Tell heaven I’m coming on home one day
