Won't Be Missing A Thing
I can't take my world along with me
Won't have no care when I see the Son
Can't take my selfish worries with me
There'll be no room for what is already done
Can't take my pride along with me
My pride takes a ride when I walk through the door
Can't take no grudge along with me
The last thing they need is a judge up there
When I hear the call, I won't pack no things
Gonna lose it all for so much better things
I won't be coming back this way, it's a one way street
I won't be missing a thing when I leave this world
I can't take my body with me
I'll be turning it in for a better one
Can't take my blues along with me
There just won't be no cryin' done there
Sometimes it's a joy to me that the sun goes down
I'm glad cool shadows come along
So glad when the night time hides me here
I need to rest, I'm not feeling strong
I can't take no kind of blamin' there
Be no finger pointing anywhere
Won't be no heat, no flame in there
No fire burnin' anywhere
When I hear the call I won't pack no things
I'm gonna lose it all for much better things
Won't be comin' back this way, it's a one way street
I won't be missing a thing when I leave this world behind
When they call my name I won't pack a bag
I'm looking for a brand new city, not built with hands
So much beauty so much wonder there
I won't be missing a thing when I leave this world behind
Won't have no care when I see the Son
Can't take my selfish worries with me
There'll be no room for what is already done
Can't take my pride along with me
My pride takes a ride when I walk through the door
Can't take no grudge along with me
The last thing they need is a judge up there
When I hear the call, I won't pack no things
Gonna lose it all for so much better things
I won't be coming back this way, it's a one way street
I won't be missing a thing when I leave this world
I can't take my body with me
I'll be turning it in for a better one
Can't take my blues along with me
There just won't be no cryin' done there
Sometimes it's a joy to me that the sun goes down
I'm glad cool shadows come along
So glad when the night time hides me here
I need to rest, I'm not feeling strong
I can't take no kind of blamin' there
Be no finger pointing anywhere
Won't be no heat, no flame in there
No fire burnin' anywhere
When I hear the call I won't pack no things
I'm gonna lose it all for much better things
Won't be comin' back this way, it's a one way street
I won't be missing a thing when I leave this world behind
When they call my name I won't pack a bag
I'm looking for a brand new city, not built with hands
So much beauty so much wonder there
I won't be missing a thing when I leave this world behind
