Oh, brother,
well, it ain't no lie
Bound for
Zion by and by
Oh, yes, it's by and by,
brother, by and by
Bound for
Zion by and by
Well, when I reach that yonder shore
I'm gonna sing a shout for evermore
I'm gonna sing about those
wonders up in heaven above
I'm gonna sing about the
glory of the good
Lord's love
Oh, brother, well, it ain't no lie
Bound for
Zion by and by
I'm by and by, brother, by and by
Bound for
Zion by and by
Well, oh, my brother,
if you want to go
Won't you make up your mind?
Don't be so slow
Won't you get on board and take a ride
And you move on over to the good
Lord's side
Oh, my brother, well, it ain't no lie
I mean it, that was I and bye
Sing it now, it's bye -bye, brother
Bye -bye, that was I and bye -bye
Well, when you enter into heaven
No, it don't make no difference
if you're rich or poor
Cause the man who's sittin'
in that heavenly throne
He said, every man is a child of my own
Oh brother, well it ain't no lie
Bound for
Zion by and by
By and by, well it's by and by
Bound for
Zion by and by
Bound for
Zion by and by
