Rock of ages

Round, round, wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
When my body gives out
Gonna read the final pages

Oh, my mother is gone
She told me I should meet her
Someday streets of gold
Gonna guide me on to greet her

Once my father sat down
And told me of the prophets
Mathew, Mark, Luke and John
They’re gone but not forgotten

Round, round wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
‘Til my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages

Moses heard a voice
Called him up the mountain
Forty days have spent
When Moses come a-shoutin’

Round, round wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
‘Til my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages

(3x)
Round, round wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
‘Til my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages
