In My Time Of Dying lyrics

Written by: r. johnson (jones/page/bonham/plant)

In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All i want for you to do is take my body home

Well, well, well, so i can die easy (x2)

Jesus, gonna make up my dyin` bed.
Meet me, jesus, meet me. meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, lord. please meet me with another pair

Well, well, well, so i can die easy (x2)

Jesus, gonna make up.. somebody, somebody...
Jesus gonna make up... jesus gonna make you my dyin` bed

Oh, saint peter, at the gates of heaven... won`t you let me in
I never did no harm. i never did no wrong

Oh, gabriel, let me blow your horn. let me blow your horn
Oh, i never did, did no harm.

I`ve only been this young once. i never thought i`d do anybody no wrong
No, not once.

Oh, i did somebody some good. somebody some good...
Oh, did somebody some good. i must have did somebody some good...

And i see them in the streets
And i see them in the field
And i hear them shouting under my feet
And i know it`s got to be real
Oh, lord, deliver me
All the wrong i`ve done
You can deliver me, lord
I only wanted to have some fun.

Hear the angels marchin`, hear the` marchin`, hear them marchin`,
Hear them marchin`, the` marchin`

Oh my jesus... (repeat)

Oh, don`t you make it my dyin`, dyin`, dyin`...
