The Best Of The Oak Ridge Boys (Columbia) Lyrics

 

Heaven Bound
(originally appeared on a 7" single,
this is the exact same version)


Now I know, just where I'm going
Heaven bound, heaven bound
I'm ready Lord, for that sweet someday.
Now I know, just where I'm going
heaven bound, heaven bound
I'm ready Lord, and I’ll be on my way


Oh I feel good everyday
Cause I'm walking down the narrow way
Passing through, passing through,
I'm heaven bound.
Got me a ticket now
And I'm gonna ride the glory train
Cause you know that I’m going home, going home,
I'm heaven bound


I'm getting ready
No time for looking around.
Soon I'll be leaving,
I'm going home
I'm heaven bound

 

 

Family Reunion
 (originally appeared on a 7" single,
this is the exact same version)
 

Mama taught us how to sing in harmony.
Grandma used to stomp her foot and slap her knee.
I can still hear daddy sing down by the old millstream
When Uncle Jim played the fiddle
You could hear it talk
You could hear it sing


And it echoed down the mountains to those Georgia pines
Ran through Tennessee just like that old moonshine.
Old Joe Clark, Cripple Creek, Annie Get Your Gun.
I guess my all time favorite was that Fox On the Run.
Like a fox, like a fox, like a fox on the run


Grandpa played the dobro till the break of dawn
Me, I had this guitar and I strummed along.
Carol played the washboard and the tambourine
Little Mary Beth would always help us sing
