Living in the Promised Land lyrics
by Triumphant Quartet
One of these cold, dark mornings
Won't be very long
You're gonna try to find me
But I'll be already gone
Gone like jet plane flying
Gone like your money spent
Whole lot of people
Gonna scratch their heads
And wonder just where I went
Somebody tell my father
Somebody tell my mother
Somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
Somebody tell my sister
Somebody tell my brother
Somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
On the far side of Jordan
Losing these earthly blues
Making my way down golden streets
Just wearing my dancing shoes
I'll dance 'cause my trouble's over
I'll dance 'cause I've reached the top
I'll dance for a million years or more
'Cause it feels too good to stop
Well, somebody tell my father
Somebody tell my mother
Somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
Somebody tell my sister
Somebody tell my brother
Somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
Tell all the sinners
Tell all the saints
Somebody tell them where I am
And tell them where I ain't
Tell everybody
Till they understand
Ain't no better livin' than
Just livin' in the promised land
Well, well, well
Somebody tell my father
Somebody tell my mother
Somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
Somebody tell my sister
Somebody tell my brother
Somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
Somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
Oh, somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
Somebody tell my father
Somebody tell my mother
Somebody tell my sister
Somebody tell my brother
Somebody tell my father
Somebody tell my mother
Somebody tell my sister
Somebody tell my brother
Somebody tell somebody, yeah
Somebody tell somebody
Oh, somebody tell somebody
I am living in the promised land
