Lyrics
GOSPEL MAN
V1- I?m on the road with my chrome dobro,
I?m headed due west in my big, blue Jeep Cherokee.
My boots are laced and I?ve packed my case,
It?s early Sunday morning, O? Lord, and I?m startin? to see.
In the mist up ahead a road sign says
Ninety miles to the City of Nashville, Tennesee.
C1- I?m a Gospel, Gospel, Gospel Man,
Forty three (or insert desired age) years old and I?ve made my plans.
I?m a Gospel, Gospel, Gospel Man,
Gonna try my hand in Nashville land.
V2- The road turned down to a lazy, little town,
With the First Baptist Church on the left right around the bend.
I opened the door and a man come over, said:
?Hey, Mister, do you have a big gospel voice to lend??
The choir rang out, my voice sang out.
Amazing grace, this was the place instead.
C2- I?m a Gospel, Gospel, Gospel Man,
I?ve felt His hand, I?ve seen His plan.
I?m a Gospel, Gospel, Gospel Man,
If it?s what He?s planned, this is where I?ll stand.
