I'm gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
I'm going far beyond the sky, hey...
I'm gonna shout and sing
Until all heaven rings
When I bid this old world goodbye
Goodbye

I have good news to bring
And that is why I sing
All my joy with you I'd like to share
I'm gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
I wanna go sailing through the air

I'm gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
I'm going far beyond the sky, hey...
I'm gonna shout and sing
Until all heaven rings
When I bid this old world goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye

I can scarcely wait
I know I don't wanna be late
I'm gonna spend all my time in prayer
But when my ship comes in
I'm gonna leave this old world of sin
I gonna go sailing through the air, yeah!
I'm gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
I'm going far bеyond the sky, hey...
I'm gonna shout and sing
Until all heavеn rings
When I bid this old world goodbye
Goodbye

Yes, I'm gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
I'm going far beyond the sky
I'm gonna shout and sing
Until all heaven rings
When I bid this old world goodbye
Goodbye

Yes, I'm gonna take a trip
In that good old gospel ship
I'm going far beyond the sky
I'm gonna shout and sing
Until all heaven rings
When I bid this old world goodbye
Goodbye!
