Some of These Days

Representative Text

Chorus:
I’m a-gona to walk on the streets of glory,
I’m a-gona to walk on the streets of glory,
I’m a-gona to walk on the streets of glory
Gona to walk on the streets of glory some o’ these days.

1 I’m a-gona sing and shout forever.

2 I’m a-gona down to the river Jordan. [Chorus]

3 I’m a-gona meet my sainted mother. [Chorus]

4 I’m a-gona see my blessed Savior. [Chorus]

5 I’m a-gona talk to the Hebrew children. [Chorus]
