The Oak Ridge Boys

Heaven Bound

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Another day it's the same old grind

A tired body and a tired mind, yeah

The whistle blows and then I'm free

It's like an angel's a-callin' me

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

I'm ready, I'm ready

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Well, I swear that this old truck

It's like a golden chariot-it's got a

A short bed and a long loan

But it's surely gonna take me home, and

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

I'm ready, I'm ready

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Its been a long day, Lord, and I've worked hard

But now I'm goin' to my final reward

It's your love and I just can't wait

To be standin' at the pearly gates, and

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

I'm ready, I'm ready

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

Well, I'm gonna leave this weary work-day

world behind

When I look in your eyes, that heavenly

light gonna shine

Oh yeah

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound, yeah

I'm ready, I'm ready

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound, yeah

I'm ready, yeah, I'm ready

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

I'm ready, I'm ready

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

I'm ready, I'm ready

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound
