George Jones — Homecoming in Heaven

(Willie Nelson - Paul Buskirk - Walt Breeland - Claude Gray) My years have been many My loved ones are gone And I miss them more every day I'm ready to move to that heavenly home And I yearn for the day I can say Take this ring from my finger These shoes from my feet Take all of my worldly possessions away Just leave me my bible A date I must keep It's homecoming in heaven for me --- Instrumental --- I'll kiss my ol' mother Shake hands with my dad I know they'll remember their boy We'll all be so happy And I'll be so glad As our cup runneth over with joy! Take this ring from my finger These shoes from my feet Take all of my worldly possessions away Just leave me my bible A date I must keep It's homecoming in heaven for me..
