At The Gate
(专辑: Rockin' You Tonight - 2006)
Will it be my Uncle Ronnie, I
barely knew him when he left He was only nineteen when he crashed that red Corvette Will it be my great grandmother with some cookies that she baked Oh, I
wonder who's gonna greet me at the
gate Will it be my goodfriend Matthew who spent his life in a
chair Will he coming running to me the
day I
get up there Or that bully back in high school I
told my Mama that I
hate Oh, I
wonder who's gonna greet me at the
gate Will it be a
choir of Angels with some heavenly refrain Or Saint Peter like I've always heard with his big book of names Will it be my old dog, Bailey, who died when I
was eight Oh, I
wonder who's gonna greet me at the
gate [Instrumental Interlude] I
pray it's not my wife, my daughter or my son Cause that would mean the
good Lord took em before my time was done Tonight, they're all sound asleep as I
lie here wide awake And I
wonder who's gonna greet me at the
gate We're brought into this world with God only knows how many years We crawl, we walk, we run, we dance We cry a
million tears And in a
flash our lives are over And we're face to face with fate Oh, I
wonder who's gonna greet me at the
gate Who's gonna greet me at the
gate
