Long White Robe

Oh ‘taint no use for to pinch and save when I put on my long white robe
Oh, I can’t take none of it to my grave when I put on my long white robe
Saint Peter won’t know if I’m rich or poor when I put on my long white robe
And I just ain’t goin’ to work no more, when I put on my long white robe

Sing Hallelujah, Hal-el-hal le lu jah
Ride a milk white horse, diamond hood hitched to the rock where Moses stood
Look so fine and feel so good when I put on my long white robe

I’ll look at my hands and they’ll look new when I put on my long white robe
My big ol’ feet will look that way too, when I put on my long white robe
Though, my roof it leaks and my chimney smokes when I put on my long white robe
I’ll hold my head like other folk, when I put on my long white robe

Sing Hallelujah, Hal-el-hal le lu jah
Ride a milk white horse, diamond hood hitched to the rock where Moses stood
Look so fine and feel so good when I put on my long white robe

Gonna take my pants right off my legs, when I put on my long white robe
Gonna hang ‘em up on the golden peg, when I put on my long white robe
Oh, I’ll keep my nose upon my face when I put on my long white robe
For anywhere else would be out of place when I put on my long white robe

Sing Hallelujah, Hal-el-hal le lu jah
Ride a milk white horse, diamond hood hitched to the rock where Moses stood
Look so fine and feel so good when I put on my long white robe
