When my time on this earth is over, if I should fly To that sweet home of angels up above To all my earthly pleasures, I will bid good-bye But I'll miss that gospel bluegrass that I love So gather round and raise your blessed voices And enjoy that gospel bluegrass, while you live It's hard to find a banjo player up in heaven There's some things even Jesus won't forgive There's glorious swells, harps and bells awaiting In heaven I'll hear Gabriel's trumpet blow But I'm reassured to know that Satan Has lots of work for banjo players down below So gather round and raise your pleasant voices And play that gospel bluegrass, while you live It's hard to find a banjo player up in heaven There's some things even Jesus won't forgive There's some things even Jesus won't forgive
