When I Cross Over Songtext
von Tift Merritt

I don′t want to talk to nobody
Don't want to make no plans
I′m so tired of this party
I've had all my laughs
I'll send you somethin′ when I cross over
Somethin′ when I cross over
I'll send you somethin′ when I cross over
When I'm where I′m goin'
I get in a good mood just thinkin′ 'bout
All those streets I've never seen
Nobody askin′ me for nothin′
Nobody angry with me
I'll send you somethin′ when I cross over
Somethin' when I cross over
I′ll send you somethin' when I cross over
When I′m where I'm goin'
Not even gonna take my Pontiac


What do I need it for?
I won′t be tangled up no more
I′ll send you somethin' when I cross over
Somethin′ when I cross over
I'll send you somethin′ when I cross over
Seems like a woman in the mornin'
Oughta have nothin′ to worry about
Sit down and have a cup of coffee
Hum a little while, think out loud
I'm not gonna hang up any pictures
No numbers taped to the wall
Suitcase gonna get a little lighter
I'm gonna unpack all alone
I′ll send you somethin′ when I cross over
Somethin' when I cross over
I′ll send you somethin' when I cross over
When I′m where I'm goin′
