Where I Wanna Live When I Die

Up on the hill where the tall grass grows
Talked back somewhere down an older broad
Front porch swinging 'neath the peaceful sky
Yeah, that's where I wanna live when I die

Cool water creek cutting through the trees
Wild honeysuckle floating on a breeze
It's crystal clear when I close my eyes
That's where I wanna live when I die

It don't matter where they lay me down
Can nothing on earth keep me in the ground
I'll be spending my forever in paradise
That's where I wanna live when I die

The good Lord's building me a home
He'll have it ready when it's my time to go
Just across the river from my last goodbye
That's where I wanna live when I die

It don't matter where they lay me down
Can nothing on earth keep me in the ground
I'll be spending my forever in paradise
Yeah, that's where I wanna live when I die

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Won't be pine box bound in a limousine
Under my headstone, you won't find me
'Cause I'll be walking in glory by Jesus' side
That's where I wanna live when I die
That's where I wanna live when I die
That's where I wanna live when I die
