My time coming any day,
don't worry 'bout me, no
Been so long I felt this way, ain't in no hurry no
Rainbows end down that highway
where ocean breezes blow
My time coming, voices saying, they tell me where to go
Don't you worry 'bout me--oh no no, don't worry 'bout me, no
And I'm in no hurry--oh no no no, I know where to go
California, preaching on the burning shore
California, I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel,
standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise,
I know I'm gonna shine
My time coming any day, don't worry 'bout me, no
It's gonna be just like they say, them
voices tell me so
Seems so long I felt this way and
time sure passing slow
Still I know I lead the way, they tell me where I go
Don't you worry 'bout me--oh, no, no, don't worry 'bout me, no
And I'm in no hurry--oh, no, no, no, I know where to go
California,
a prophet on the burning shore
California, I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel, standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise,
I know I'm gonna shine
You've all been asleep, you would not believe me
Them voices telling me, you will soon receive me
We're standing on the beach, the sea will part before me
Fire wheel burning in the air
You will follow me and we will ride to glory
Way up in the middle of the air
And
I'll call down thunder and speak the same
And
my work fills the sky with flame
And might and glory gonna be my name
And men gonna light my way
My time coming any day, don't worry 'bout me, no
It's gonna be just like they say, them voices tell me so
This afternoon, streets turned grey as
I watched the cars below
My time coming any day, don't worry 'bout me, no
Don't you worry 'bout me--oh, no, no, don't worry 'bout me, no
And I'm in no hurry--oh, no, no, don't worry 'bout me, no
And I'm in no hurry--oh, no, no, no, I know where to go
