"Barefoot In Heaven" lyrics

"Barefoot In Heaven"

Now they tell me the streets of heaven
Are paved with diamonds and gold
I may not get there but if I do
I believe I gonna take off my shoes

Gonna walk around heaven
Gonna walk around heaven
Barefooted singing God's praise
Gonna walk around heaven
Gonna walk around heaven
Where there ain't no end of days

Ain't a secret if you know me
I been no account most of my life
But I been converted and now I got the spirit
So there's a chance I gonna see this paradise

When I get to heaven preachers tell me
I get a halo some wings and a harp
That's well and good
But what I do hear
Is Sister Rosetta Tharpe
