Rodney Atkins - When It's My Time lyrics

I was late for work Had to pull to the side While a funeral train of cars drove by With their lights on It was just my luck It went on and on for miles I kept checkin' my watch, grittin' my teeth Then suddenly it dawned on me Whoever this is is gonna be missed For a long long time And it got me thinkin' When it's my time to go The end of my road I hope it looks like this Two hundred cars Stretched out as far As the hearts I touched while I lived And I hope I leave Half as much love behind When it's my time So I followed that last car Down to the church Took off my ball cap Tucked in my shirt I Just had to see What kind of life Could cause such a traffic jam Heard story after story People laughed, people cried It didn't take long to understand why Every pew was full There's a lot of good souls Be better from knowin' him Now I'm one of them When it's my time to go The end of my road I hope it looks like this Two hundred cars Stretched out as far As the hearts I touched while I lived And I hope I leave Half as much love behind When it's my time Felt a hand on my back Turned around, someone asked 'Did you know him well?' And I said 'Yeah, Well enough to know…' When it's my time to go The end of my road I hope it looks like this Two hundred cars Stretched out as far As the hearts I touched while I lived And I hope I leave Half as much love behind When it's my time Ooooh
