《You’re Not Home Yet》歌词

[00:00:00] You're Not Home Yet - Merle Haggard

[00:00:09] Beautiful isle of somewhere

[00:00:20] If you've got two or three minutes

[00:00:23] I'd like to tell you a story

[00:00:25] And this a story about a preacher

[00:00:29] And I know there's a lot of stories

[00:00:31] About a lot of preachers

[00:00:35] But this is a story of one particular preacher

[00:00:39] Who went overseas to fight a war

[00:00:43] And this was a war for God

[00:00:47] And not for any one country

[00:00:50] And he fought a long hard fight

[00:00:52] And he won a lot of souls

[00:00:57] But this preacher got old and he was coming home

[00:01:03] Now he just happened to be on the same ship

[00:01:05] With what some of us call a celebrity

[00:01:11] And when the boat docked

[00:01:14] There were thousands of people waiting

[00:01:15] To meet the celebrity

[00:01:19] And they carried him off on their shoulders

[00:01:23] But there was no one there

[00:01:25] To meet the old preacher

[00:01:29] And he looked up and he said

[00:01:30] "Lord did you forget "

[00:01:36] Well it seemed like the Heavens just broke open

[00:01:38] And the Lord said "No son I didn't forget

[00:01:47] But you must remember

[00:01:49] You're not home yet"

[00:01:51] You're not home you're not home

[00:01:56] You're not home yet

[00:02:00] I can still hear my Lord's voice ringing

[00:02:10] "There'll be a crowd to meet you

[00:02:15] A choir of angels to greet you

[00:02:20] I didn't forget but son

[00:02:25] You're not home yet"
