Listen, all of you people,
Come and take a few lessons from me,
Get yourselves prepared for judgement day,
Hallelujah, lujah!
When you hear the trumpet blast
Then you know you're home at last.
Open up them pearly gates for me.
Chorus:
Why don't you
Open up them pearly gates,
Open up them pearly gates,
Open up them pearly gates for me?
Hallelujah, lujah!
When you hear the trumpet blast
Then you know you're home at last.
Open up them pearly gates for me, for me.
All you gambling sinners,
Now's time to start believing,
You're gonna meet your maker some sweet day
Hallelujah, lujah!
When you hear the trumpet clear
Gonna say goodbye to fear.
Open up them pearly gates for me.
Chorus
