Gillian Welch & Alison Krauss - I'll Fly Away Lyrics

Gillian Welch & Alison Krauss Lyrics

"I'll Fly Away"
(from "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack)

Some bright morning when this life is over
I'll fly away
To that home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away

I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away in the morning
When I die hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away

When the shadows of this life have gone
I'll fly away
Like a bird from these prison walls I'll fly
I'll fly away

I'll (fly away) fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away in the morning
When I die hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away

Oh, how glad and happy when we meet
I'll fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet
I'll fly away

I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away in the morning
When I die hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away

I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away in the morning
When I die hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away

Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To a land where joys will never end
I'll fly away

I'll (fly away) fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away in the morning
When I die hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away
I'll fly away
