The day I leave for heaven
My friends will be so sad
Their faces gonna hang real long and low
Then I'll look up and see them
I'll say it ain't so bad
If you play me out with music, I can go

Play me out (play me out)
Play me out (play me out)
With a tambourine, a trumpet, and I'll come
Clap your hands (clap your hands)
Sing and shout (sing and shout)
Keep it going till the angels know
I'm coming right on home

The day I'm bound for glory
You're gonna see me smile
'Cause pretty soon I'll knock on Gabriel's door
So sing me that sweet story
And beat the drum awhile
And play me out until I reach that shore

Play me out (play me out)
Play me out (play me out)
With a tambourine, a trumpеt, and I'll come
Clap your hands (clap your hands)
Sing and shout (sing and shout)
Keep it going till the angels know
I'm coming right on homе
Play me out, play me out
With a tambourine, a trumpet, and I'll come
Clap your hands, sing and shout
Keep it going so the angels know
I'm coming right on home

Play me out (play me out)
Play me out (play me out)
With a tambourine, a trumpet, and I'll come
Clap your hands (clap your hands)
Sing and shout (sing and shout)
Keep it going so the angels know
I'm coming right on home

Play me out (play me out)
Play me out (play me out)
With a tambourine, a trumpet, and I'll come
Clap your hands (clap your hands)
Sing and shout (sing and shout)
Keep it going so the angels know
I'm coming right on home

Play me out (play me out)
Play me out (play me out)
With a tambourine, a trumpet, and I'll come...
