On My Journey lyrics

[Intro]
(A lump between my throat)
(This next song is preceded by a little ethnic tuning
I think of some sort
This is a five string banjo
Everyone else plays a four string except you know
He plays five)

(Are ya through?)

[Verse 1]
When I'm on my journey, don't you grieve after me
When I'm on my journey, don't you grieve after me
When I'm on my journey, don't you grieve after me
I don't want you to grieve after me

[Verse 2]
Searchin' for a city, don't you grieve after me
Searchin' for a city, don't you grieve after me
Searchin' for a city, don't you grieve after me
I don't want you to grieve after me

[Verse 3]
We'll hear the trumpet sounding, don't you grieve after me (Oh, I'm on my way)
I hear the trumpet sounding, don't you grieve after me (On my way)
I hear the trumpet sounding, don't you grieve after me
I don't want you to grieve after me
[Verse 4]
We'll sing and shout for glory, don't you grieve after me
We'll sing and shout for glory, don't you grieve after me
We'll sing and shout for glory, don't you grieve after me
I don't want you to grieve after me

[Verse 5]
Come brother, won't you join us? Don't you grieve after me (After me)
Come brother, won't you join us? Don't you grieve after me (After me)
Come brother, won't you join us? Don't you grieve after me
I don't want you to grieve after me
