Look away in the heaven,
Look away in the heaven,
Look away in the heaven,
I hope to join the band.

See my mother some o' these mornings,
See my mother some o' these mornings,
An' I hope I'll join the band. [Chorus]

See my father some o' these mornings,
See my father some o' these mornings,
An' I hope I'll join the band. [Chorus]

See my brother some o' these mornings,
See my brother some o' these mornings,
An' I hope I'll join the band. [Chorus]

See my Jesus some o' these mornings,
See my Jesus some o' these mornings,
An' I hope I'll join the band. [Chorus]

6 I'm going to shout my troubles some o' these mornings,
Shout my troubles some o' these mornings,
Shout my troubles some o' these mornings,
An' I hope I'll join the band. [Chorus]
