Hi everyone I thought I'd post these lyrics to the song that made it onto the CD.....the fourth verse was omitted for various reasons.......none of them controversial........so you guys have got the full version.

This song was originaly written for a Gospel choir....you know 'New Voices Of Freedom' type of thing......hope you like it.

If you wan't to hear this song check out 'Annoncements and Links'

Best wishes

Jon


Hey Driver Next Stop Heaven


Hey Driver next stop heaven my work is done

I thought I heard some crying
I thought I heard a prayer
And when all hope is dying
You’ll find the spirit there

Hey Driver next stop heaven my work is done

I thought I saw an Angel
Standing in my room
She just quietly whispered
You’ll cross that river soon

Hey Driver next stop heaven my work is done

I thought I saw St Peter
Standing at the gate
You know he comes to meet yer
So please don’t be late

Hey Driver next stop heaven my work is done

………………………………………………..

I thought I saw the master
I saw him bow His head
And when the day was over
This is what he said

Hey Driver next stop heaven my work is done

Nice one Jon hope it goes well

Sometimes you have to let go and move on,
But never let go of the memories.

Wonderful lyrics just like the song!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!
