Until You Get There

Until You Get There - The Oak Ridge Boys

These two souls were up in heaven sitting and talking

When he got word it was his time to go

Cause a couple down in Memphis wants a baby

And heaven chose him oh so long ago.

So he turned to her and he said, I’m gonna miss you

She said, Don’t you worry, I’ll be down there soon.

There’s a family in Tupelo praying for a daughter

And I’ll be their answer in a year or two.

And he said, How will I stand earth until you get there

I won’t know a soul, it’ll be so strange.

Wherever I go, whatever I do, I’ll be looking hard for you.

How will I stand earth until you get there

He was in his senior year down in Oxford

When a pretty junior girl walked into class

She said, My name’s Angel, you look so familiar

He said, maybe we met somewhere in the past.

When she said I’m from Tupelo something happened

Next thing you know he’d asked her to be his wife

He said I’ve got a job waiting on me out in Dallas

When you graduate we’ll start a brand new life.

But how will I stand Dallas till you get there

I won’t know a soul, it’ll be so strange.

I’ll be strong, I’ll be true, I’ll be waiting there for you

How will I stand Dallas till you get there

Sixty years and eight grandchildren later
