The Dixie Drifter - Soul Heaven lyrics

rate me

There's a new place<br />

In Heaven, I'm told<br />

Where stands three chairs<br />

Made of pure gold<br />

<br />

One chair's for the queen<br />

Dinah Washington, her name<br />

And singing soul was her fame<br />

She's up there in the new place<br />

Called (soul heaven) soul heaven<br />

<br />

The second chair is for the king<br />

Nat King Cole, his name<br />

A voice soft as velvet<br />

Long may he reign in<br />

(Soul heaven) soul heaven<br />

<br />

Now the third chair<br />

Is for the prince<br />

His name, Sam Cooke<br />

You know, when it comes to soul<br />

Sam Cooke, why, Sam Cooke<br />

Wrote the book<br />

<br />

Three chairs made of pure gold<br />

In a place set aside<br />

For the royalty of soul<br />

There they are, side by side<br />

Together up there in<br />

(Soul heaven) soul heaven<br />

<br />

Yeah, in soul heaven
