When I die and they lay me to rest,
Gonna go to the place that's the best
When they lay me down to die,
Goin up to the spirit in the sky

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky (Spirit in the sky)
That's where I'm gonna go to when I die (When I die)
When I die and they lay me to rest,
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best

Prepare yourself, you know it's a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus,
So you know that when you die,
He's gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky
(Spirit in the sky)
Going up to the spirit in the sky
That's where i'm gonna go when I die (When I die)

He's gonna set me up with the Spirit in the sky

Whoa, send me up with the spirit in the sky (Spirit in the sky)
