[00:11.02]Hasn't anybody seen me lately
[00:15.05]I'll tell you why
[00:20.82]Hasn't anybody seen me lately
[00:25.24]I'll tell you why
[00:30.04]I caught something made me so sick
[00:33.72]That I thought that I would die
[00:37.41]And I almost did too
[00:39.91]First me knees begin to tremble
[00:43.58]My heart begin to pound
[00:49.25]First my knees begin to tremble
[00:53.84]My heart begin to pound
[00:56.79]It was arrhythmic and out of tune
[01:01.59]I lost my equilibrium
[01:04.47]And fell face down upon the ground
[01:10.80]As I lay there on that cold pavement
[01:14.75]A tear ran down my face
[01:17.64]'Cause I thought I was dying
[01:20.63]You boys know I'm not a religious man
[01:24.20]But I sent a prayer out just in case
[01:27.34]You never know
[01:29.68]Lo and behold almost immediately
[01:33.76]I had reason to believe my prayer had
[01:35.85]Been heard in a very special place
[01:38.48]'Cause I heard this sound
[01:42.93]Yes
[01:48.30]Yes, it was harps and angels
[01:52.21]Harps and angels coming near
[01:58.84]I was to sick to roll over and see them
[02:00.30]But I could hear them singin ever so beautifully
[02:03.22]In my ear
[02:05.47]Then the sound began to subside
[02:07.95]And they sounded like background singers
[02:10.52]And a voice come down from the heavens above
[02:14.63]It was a voice full of anger from the Old Testament
[02:17.72]And a voice full of love from the New One
[02:19.78]And the street lit up like it was the middle of the day
[02:23.84]And I lay there quiet and listened to what that
[02:26.97]Voice had to say
[02:28.63]He said, "You ain't ben a good man
[02:33.15]You ain't been a bad man
[02:35.68]But you've been pretty bad
[02:39.47]Lucky for you this ain't your time
[02:43.49]Someone very dear to me has made another clerical error
[02:48.16]And we're here on a bit of a wild goose chase
[02:50.84]But I want to tell you a few things
[02:53.10]That'll hold you in good stead when it is your time
[02:55.73]So you better listen close
[02:56.83]I'm only going to say this once
[02:58.62]When they lay you on the table
[03:01.41]Better keep your bussines clean
[03:07.48]'Fore they lay you on the table
[03:11.50]Better keep your business clean
[03:16.83]Don't want no back stabbing, ass grabbing
[03:20.84]You know exactly what I mean
[03:23.05]Alright girls - we're outta here"
[03:30.98]"Encore. Encore."
[03:33.15](He spoke French)
[03:35.49]"Tres bien Encore"
[03:39.29]And off they went into the night
[03:44.10]Almost immediately I felt better
[03:47.00]And I come round to see you boys
[03:48.72]'Cause you know we ain't living right
[03:50.90]And while it was fresh
[03:52.14]I wanted to tell you what he told me
[03:55.53]He said, "When the lay you on the table
[03:59.18]Better keep your business clean
[04:04.54]When they lay you on the table
[04:08.68]Better keep your business clean
[04:14.67]Else there won't be no harps and angels
[04:17.54]Coming for you
[04:18.57]It'll be trombones, kettle drums, pitchforks,
[04:20.88]And tambourines."
[04:23.17]Sing it like they did for me one time
[04:27.84]Yes
[04:31.50]Beautiful
[04:33.32]Wish I spoke French
[04:37.60]So actually the main thing about this story is for me
[04:43.41]There really is an afterlife
[04:47.25]And I hope to see all of you there
[04:53.06]Let's go get a drink
[04:56.03]
