GA mother cries, in a Cworn out two room house
Her Amonly son is leavin, but she's Dglad He's gettin out
He Gsits her down, says you Cdeserve a better life
I'm Amgonna make one for us, cross my Dheart and hope to die
GI'll be back and Ceveryone will know my name
Next Amtime you lay eyes on me Dthings won't be the same
ResGt assured every Cword I say is true
I'm Amgoin to a better place
But I Dpromise you, I'll be Gback
He Ghad a voice like no Cone had ever heard
People Amcame from miles around, hung Don to every word
But there were Gthose, He could not make believe
They Ccalled Him names and Amlaughed at Him
And DHe said wait and see
GI'll be back and Ceveryone will know my name
Next Amtime you lay eyes on me Dthings won't be the same
ResGt assured every Cword I say is true
I'm Amgoin to a better place
But I Dpromise you, I'll be Gback
GThey say He walked up that Chill at Calvary
And not Ameven the weight of the world
Could bring DHim to His knees
His GFather's son, He was Cborn to pay the cost
And Ameverybody heard it as they nailed DHim to the cross
He said
I'll Gbe back and Ceveryone will know my name
Next Amtime you lay eyes on me Dwill you feel ashamed
Rest Gassured every Cword I say is true
I'll Amtake you to a better place
But I Dpromise you, I'll Gbe back
