Stayin’ Place Lyrics

[JOHN HENRY]
There's a someday patch
By a someday shore
Somewhere on this ol' earth's face
And we'll find us that somewhere
This side of heaven
And make it our stayin' place—

There's a someday sun
Where a someday's field's
Growin' green by my someday plow
And I'll find us that someday
This side of heaven
And make it our here-and-now—

And I'll build you a cabin
That's got boards on the floor
Got glass at the winders and a latch to the door
Somehow, someday, our feet will find the way
That lead to that somеwhere this side of hеaven—

(spoken)
I waited ten thousand years for you, Carrie

[MEN]
Next year, next year—

[CAROLINA, spoken]
You don't have to wait no longer, John

[MEN]
Next year, next year—

[JOHN HENRY]
Let heaven be our ceilin'

[CAROLINA]
Ooh

[JOHN HENRY]
And let the earth be our floor

[CAROLINA]
Ooh

[JOHN HENRY]
We plant a whole row of children
'Round the Lord's own front door

[CAROLINA]
Mmm

[JOHN HENRY]
Someday, somehow
Startin' right here and now
We'll build us a heaven

[CAROLINA]
Ooh

[JOHN HENRY]
Build it this side of heaven
Come on, let's make our stayin' place

[JOHN HENRY & CAROLINA]
Together...
