"When I die let my ashes float down the Green River
Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam
I'll be halfway to Heaven with Paradise waitin'
Just five miles away from wherever I am"
I hope and pray it isn't his time yet, loved some of his songs.
"Woke up this morning,
Put on my slippers,
Walked in the kitchen and DIED.
And oh what a feeling when my soul went thru the ceiling
And on up on into Heaven I did rise."
Or:
"While out sailing on the ocean,
While out sailing on the sea.
I bumped into the savior and he said 'Pardon Me".
I said 'Jesus you look tired'
And he said 'Jesus...so do you'.
'Won't you sit down son cause I got some fat to chew'.
Or:
"And you may see me today
With an illegal smile
It don't cost very much
But it lasts a long while. "
Saw him several times in the 70s. He's an icon. God bless him please.
