Well my daddy was a drunkard
Momma taught for the Lord
Granny took me to Sunday School
G7 C
To the church by the side of the road
And I’m telling you my Jesus came from the golden city
G7 C
To the church by the side of the road
This church it wasn’t modern
It was built of log and clay
But you could see my Jesus there
G7 C
As we knelt down to pray
And I’m telling you my Jesus came from the golden city
G7 C
To the church by the side of the road
Well time has came between us
And the years have come and gone
I’m a-leaving here tomorrow
G7 C
I’ve been away too long
And I’m telling you my Jesus came from the golden city
G7 C
To the church by the side of the road
