Hummin'
I’ve got to get out of here
Before I lose my mind
I’m always getting out of somewhere
Half of the time
I know if Elvis was here
We’d be having a grand old time
I know Elvis is dead
But he lives inside my head
I’ve gotta get on the road
Before I lose my way
On the back of a long black snake
Shining in the rain
I know if Johnny was here
We’d be ripping up this town
I know Johnny is gone
But he lives on in a song
I’ve got to get my guns
Before I shoot me a painful foot
I’ve got to get out the dark doubt
Before it ruins me for good
I know if Jesus was here
I’d be a better man
Yeah, just me and Him
Johnny and the king
Humming an old hymn
And we’re next to the bed
Of an old man almost dead
Johnny’s softly praying
And Elvis lights a cigarette
And through the smoke I see
The old man is me
Yeah, just me and him
Johnny and the king
Still humming an old hymn
I’m going up yonder
I’m going up yonder
I’m going up yonder
I’m going up yonder
To be with my Lord (My Lord)
To be with my Lord (My Lord)
To be with my Lord (My Lord)
To be with my Lord (My Lord)
To be with you, my Lord (My Lord)
To be with my Lord (My Lord)
