Chi Coltrane - Go Like Elijah

Via Ron W


Someday my time to die will come
When that will be I don't know
I only know that when I have to go
Oh yeah

'Cause when I go (When I go), I wanna go (I wanna go)
Just let me go (Just let me go), oooh, yeah, when I go (Yeah, when I go)
I wanna go (I wanna go), Lord, let me go
Just let me go like Elijah when I go

I wanna rise right up into the sky
And ride white horses with fiery eyes
Lord, for my sins I apologize

Just let me go (Just let me go), Lord, when I go (Lord, when I go)
When my time comes for me to go
I wanna go like Elijah when I go

I don't want no tombstone above my head
And I don't want no pinebox for my bed, oh no
And I don't want anyone to say I'm dead, oh no

'Cause when I go (Yeah, when I go), I wanna go (I wanna go)
Just let me go (Just let me go), oooh, yeah, when I go (Yeah, when I go)
I wanna go (I wanna go), Lord, let me go
Just let me go like Elijah when I go

I wanna rise right up into the sky
And ride white horses with fiery eyes
Lord, for my sins I apologize

Just let me go (Just let me go), I wanna go go (I wanna go)
When my time comes for me to go
Just let me go like Elijah when I go

Ooohooohooo, yeaheah

I don't want know one cryin' or feelin' sad
Or standin' in the rain without their hat, oh no
I wanna go happy, imagine that

'Cause when I go (Yeah, when I go), just let me go (I wanna go)
I wanna go (Just let me go), oooh, yeah, when I go (Yeah, when I go)
Just let me go (I wanna go), Lord, when I go
I wanna go like Elijah when I go

I wanna rise right up into the sky
And ride white horses with fiery eyes
Lord, for my sins I apologize

Just let me go (Just let me go), I wanna go (Lord, when I go)
When my time comes for me to go
Just let me go like Elijah when I go (When I go, when I go)

I wanna go like Elijah when I go (When I go, when I go)
Just let me go like Elijah when I go

  1. Thanks Brock!

    Actually the verse:

    "I wanna rise right up into the sky
    And ride white roses with fiery eyes
    Lord, for my sins I apologize"

    Is "And ride white horses with fiery eyes"

    But good lyrics and a great performance based on the ancient example from II Kings 2:11 and the Promise in I Thessalonians 4:16-17. --Ron W

    1. Thanks and that's weird as my mind read it as horses when it saw ride in front of it! :)
