I had a dream last night that it wasn't me (that it wasn't me)
Oh it wasn't me (that it wasn't me)
I dreamed that they journeyed in mornin' (had a dream)
At dawn that a trumpet had blown (had a dream)
Dreams that'll make you never get up (had a dream)
Yeah they journeyed around the throne (had a dream)
Oh, oh what a sight this is (had a dream)
In a minute they'll be driven away (had a dream)
I had a dream (I had a dream)
I had a dream (I had a dream)
I had a dream (I had a dream)
I had a dream (I had a dream)
People were cryin' (I had a dream)
Also dyin' (I had a dream)
I had known it (I had a dream)
Yeah I had grown it (I had a dream)
Oh I had a dream (I had a dream)
Oh I had a dream (I had a dream)
It worried me (that worried me)
It worried me (that worried me)
It worried me (that worried me)
It worried me (that worried me)
Fear we're bending' (that worried me)
People were tremblin' (that worried me)
There was weepin' (that worried me)
There was wailing (that worried me)
Oh I had a dream (I had a dream)
Oh I had a dream (I had a dream)
Oh I had a dream (I had a dream)
Oh I had a dream (I had a dream)
Last night (I had a dream)
That worried me
(I had a) dream that worried me
