I'm gonna rise right out of the ground
Ain't no grave
Can hold my body down

Well, look way down the river
And what do you think I see
I see a band of angels
And they're coming after me

Ain't no grave
Can hold my body down
There ain't no grave
Can hold my body down
[VERSE]
Well, look down yonder, Gabriel
Put your feet on the land and sea
But Gabriel, don't you blow your trumpet
Until you hear from me

Can hold my body down
Ain't no grave
Can hold my body down

Meet me in the middle of the air
And if these wings don't fail me,

Can hold my body down
There ain't no grave
Can hold my body down

Meet me down the river road
And Mama, you know that I'll be there
When I check in my load

There ain't no grave
