This world's a mystery to us, we may never understand But I know that my Redeemer liveth, so I'm bound for the promised land Got a heaven and a home over yonder Got a heaven and a home over yonder Heaven and a home over yonder Oh when shall I get there? Somebody's buried in the graveyard Somebody's buried in the sea Gonna wake up in the morning shouting Gonna sound the jubilee I remember when a Sunday school boy, I was taught the word of God And I'm still happy in my belief to receive my crown and reward Got a heaven and a home over yonder Got a heaven and a home over yonder Heaven and a home over yonder Oh when shall I get there? Somebody's buried in the graveyard Somebody's buried in the sea Gonna wake up in the morning shouting Gonna sound the jubilee A solemn murmur in the soul, tells of a world to be As travelers hear the billows roll, before they reach the sea Got a heaven and a home over yonder Got a heaven and a home over yonder Heaven and a home over yonder Oh when shall I get there? Somebody's buried in the graveyard Somebody's buried in the sea Gonna wake up in the morning shouting Gonna sound the jubilee In days of youth when last we met, oh miles we may roam Oh how I love my honey babe, we'll be happy in heaven's home Got a heaven and a home over yonder Got a heaven and a home over yonder Heaven and a home over yonder Oh when shall I get there? Somebody's buried in the graveyard Somebody's buried in the sea Gonna wake up in the morning shouting Gonna sound the jubilee Somebody's buried in the graveyard Somebody's buried in the sea Gonna wake up in the morning shouting Gonna sound the jubilee
