I Had A Real Good Mother And Father Lyrics - Soul Journey - Gillian Welch

[Chorus] 

I had a real good mother and father 

And they surely stood the test 

And now they're in bright glory 

And are sleeping on the saviors breast 

They set a good example for me 

And they taught me how to pray 

Now I truly converted 

And walkin' on the narrow way 

I know that if I can not meet them on high 

Then how lonely I will be 

For what good is my journey 

If I miss out on eternity
