Buck Owens - Eternal Vacation lyrics

rate me

Some people are taking vacation traveling both far and near

Ever stop and think about Jesus ever say him to have a care

It seems that I cannot be like them while on earth life's burdens I bear

And I prepare to meet Jesus and rest eternaly there

Yes someday I'll take a vacation one that never will end

When I'll cross old river Jordan my Saviour will welcome me in

For me the gates will swing open and I'll have a mansion within

There I will rest up in heaven a rest that never will end

[ guitar ]

Yes some people own fine mansions some live in much luxury

Ever having a thought about Saviour of where they'll spend eternity

And though I cannot be like them I'm building my mansion on high

Yes someday I'll rest up in heaven and leave this old cruel world goodbye

Yes someday I'll take a vacation...
