Gillian Welch
Rock of Ages
[Chorus]
Round, round, wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
When my body gives out
Gonna read the final pages
[Verse 1]
Oh, my mother is gone
She told me I should meet her
Someday streets of gold
Gonna guide me on to greet her
[Verse 2]
Once my father sat down
And told me of the prophets
Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John
They're gone but not forgotten
[Chorus]
Round, round, wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
Till my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages
[Verse 3]
Moses heard a voice
It called him up the mountain
Forty days had set
When Moses come a shoutin'
[Chorus]
Round, round, wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
When my body gives out
Gonna read the final pages
[Chorus]
Round, round, wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
Till my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages
[Chorus]
Round, round, wanna go round
Wanna see the rock of ages
When my body gives out
Gonna read the final pages
