Right On Time

Lyrics

Went to the river to be baptized
 When I got there to my surprise
 My neighbors were gone and the preacher too
 I cried "Oh Lord", what shall I do?
 Then a voice cried out so loud and plain
 I heard someone call my name
 Singin', "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 Up on a mountain, one cloudy day
 I closed my eyes and I began to pray
 When I opened my eyes, you know the sun broke through
 My heart was happy and my soul was new
 I started walking and before too long
 I heard his voice sing this song
 Singin', "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 Went to the station in the pouring rain
 Made up my mind to ride that gospel train
 When I got there, the train was picking up speed
 I cried "Oh, Lord" and fell on my knees
 When the brakeman heard, he slowed that train right down
 When I jumped on board, he said your glory bound
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time" oh
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 Hallelujah
 So, when I feel like every hope has died
 I remember that voice by the waterside
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time" oh
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 "You're right on time, right on time"
 Brother John said, "You're right on time"
 I'm goin' home on the mornin' train
 You made me really got Holy Ghost (amen)
 Yeah-yeah
