When My Day Comes

When I grow old, Mama, and my days are through
When I grow old, Mama, and my days are through
I got no need, Mama, to lay my burden on you
If you see me rustin' don’t you grease my chain
If you see me rustin', Mama, don’t you grease my chain
Ain’t no, Mama, gonna ease this poor boy’s pain
Hear my dream comin' close to that county line
The good Lord heard my prayer, brought that train right on time (yes he did)
(Do y’all hear me?)
When I close my eyes lay me 'neath that willow tree
Yes, when I close my eyes lay me 'neath that willow tree
Don’t you shed no tears, Mama, let that willow weep for me
Hear my dream comin', closin' over that county line
The good Lord heard my prayer, brought that train right on time The good Lord
heard my prayer, brought that train right on time
(Eased my worried mind)
(That's that train of mine)
(Brought it right on time)
(Pull the switch)
