You're gonna need somebody on your bond

You'll Need Somebody on Your Bond - Blind Willie Johnson

Well

You're gonna need somebody on your bond

You're gonna need somebody on your bond

Lord Just wait in the midnight

When death comes slippin' in your room

You're gonna need

Ah somebody on your bond

I heard the voice of Jesus saying

He told me he had risen

Now in the waining midnight hour

I don't hold my breath

You're gonna need somebody on your bond

You're gonna need somebody on your bond

Lord Just wait in the midnight

When death comes slippin' in your room

You're gonna need

Ah somebody on your bond

When you bond a gambler

Nobody would go your bond

Fell on your knees and began to pray

'Cause Jesus would go your bond

You're gonna need somebody on your bond

You're gonna need somebody on your bond

Lord Just wait in the midnight

When death comes slippin' in your room

You're gonna need

Ah somebody on your bond

I came the day

That sad was wearied wounded side

Bounds that held me

Left this place they have made me glad

If I've got somebody on my bond

Lord I've got somebody on my bond

Lord Just wait in the midnight

When death comes slippin' in your room

Lord I've got somebody on my bond
