Some sunny day-hay baby
When everything seems okay, baby
Youll wake up and find out youre alone
Cause Ill be gone
Gone, gone, gone really gone
Gone, ga-gone, cause you done me wrongEveryone that you meet baby
As you walk down the street baby
Will ask you why youre walkin all alone
Why youre on your own
Just say Im gone
Gone, gone, gone
Gone, ga-gone, cause you done me wrongIf you change your way baby
You might get me to stay baby
Ya better hurry up if ya dont wanna be alone
Or Ill be gone
Gone, gone, gone
Really gone
Gone, Ga-gone
Cause you done me wrong
Alison Krauss is an American bluegrass singer and fiddle player who has been in the music industry since she was ten years old. She was invited to join the band, Union Station (now Alison Krauss and Union Station) in 1987 and recorded their first album in 1989.
Alison has appeared on numerous soundtracks and has helped usher in a new interest in bluegrass music in the United States. She has appeared on the Grammy-winning O Brother, Where Art Thou? and on the Cold Mountain soundtracks.
One of the three songs she performed on the O Brother, Where Art Thou soundtrack. This one she shared vocals and harmony with Gillian Welch to perform a traditional bluegrass/gospel song. When I go, this is the song that will be on my soul…
http://djallyn.org/media/Ill_fly_away.flvSome bright morning when this life is over
I’ll fly away
To that home on God’s celestial shore
I’ll fly awayI’ll fly away oh glory
I’ll fly away (in the morning)
When I die hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly awayWhen the shadows of this life have gone
I’ll fly away
Like a bird from these prison walls I’ll fly
I’ll fly awayI’ll fly away oh glory
I’ll fly away (in the morning)
When I die hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly awayOh how glad and happy when we meet
I’ll fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet
I’ll fly awayI’ll fly away oh glory
I’ll fly away (in the morning)
When I die hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly awayJust a few more weary days and then
I’ll fly away
To a land where joys will never end
I’ll fly awayI’ll fly away oh glory
I’ll fly away (in the morning)
When I die hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly away
