I don't want nobody to moan
All I want my friends to do,
Come and fold my dying arms
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed

I don't want nobody to cry
All I want my friends to do,
Come and close my dying eyes
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Well, well, well

Jesus gonna make up my dying bed
Goin' on down to the river
Stick my sword up in the sand
Gonna shout, "My trouble's over,
I've done made it to the Promised Land."
Well, well, well, I've done crossed over
