Steal Away - Bobby Bare
Steal away

Steal away

Steal away to jesus

Steal away

Steal away home

I ain't got long to stay here

I was walkin' in savannah
Passed the church

Decayed and dimed

When there's slowly through the window

Came a plaintive funeral hymn

And a sympathy awakened

While a wonder

Quickly grew

Till I found myself

Seating in a little negro pew

Out at front
A young couple

Sat in sorrow nearly wild

'Cause on the altar was a coffin

And in the coffin

Was their child

Row of sad old negro preacher
At his little wooden desk

With a manner grandly upward

With the countless grotesque

And he said

Now don't be weepin' for this pretty bit of clay

For the little boy who lived there

He done gone and run away

And he was doin' very finly
And he appreaciated your love

But it's sure enough father

Want him in the large house up above

Now he didn't give you that baby by
A hundred thousand miles

He just think you need some sunshine
And he lend it for awhile

And he let you keep and love it

Till your hearts were bigger grown

And these silver tears you have shed

That's just interest on the loan

So my poor dejected mourners

Let your hearts with jesus rest

And don't go criticize no one

The one that knows the best

He sent us many comforts

He's ever right to take away

So to the lord be praised in glory

Now and ever

Let us pray

I ain't got long

To stay

Here
