I'm Working On A Road Lyrics & Chords

By Earl Scruggs, Foggy Mountain Boys

Chorus

(D)I'm workin' on a road, that leads to Glory.

I want to shake my Saviour’s (A)hand.

I'm building my (D)hope, from things eternal.

I'm workin' on a road, (A)to Glory(D)land.



Verse 1

(D)Each day I get so lonely,

while (G)living here (D)below.

My Saviour’s waiting patiently,

(E)I'm planning, now, to (A)go.

I (D)want a firm foundation,

that’s (G)built with Gods own (D)hand.

So, now I’ve started building

(A)a road to Glory(D)land.



Chorus

I'm workin' on a road, that leads to Glory.

I want to shake my Saviour’s hand.

I'm building my hope, from things eternal.

I'm workin' on a road, to Gloryland.



Verse 2

Oh listen to me sinners,

Don’t you want to go?

You know we have no promise,

of living here below.

You know he suffered, for our sins

and died, upon the cross.

For all who did believe on Him,

their souls will not be lost.



Chorus

I'm workin' on a road, that leads to Glory.

I want to shake my Saviour’s hand.

I'm building my hope, from things eternal.

I'm workin' on a road, to Gloryland.



Verse 3

And when this road is finished,

I want to travel on.

I can hear the angels singin',

up there around the throne.

I want to see my mother

and take her by the hand.

As soon as I have finshed

the road to Gloryland.
