Thread Name: Lyr Req: When The Rolls Are Passed Up Yonder
Subject: Lyr Add: WHEN THE ROLLS ARE SERVED BACK YONDER
WHEN THE ROLLS ARE SERVED BACK YONDER
As recorded by David Petete on "He Looks So Normal" (2013)

[Tune: "When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder":]

They have labored in their kitchens from the dawn till setting sun,
All their fav'rite dishes to prepare.
Then they'll bring them Sunday morning all encased in Tupperware.
When the rolls are served back yonder, I'll be there.

CHORUS: When the rolls are served back yonder, (3x)
When the rolls are served back yonder, I'll be there.

I can smell the smell of pot-roast as I'm sitting in my pew.
What is said or sung I'm simply unaware.
If the Lord comes back, please tell him I will rapture when I'm through,
'Cause when the rolls are served back yonder, I'll be there. CHORUS

[Tune: "I'll Fly Away":]

Some sad mornin', biscuit in my hand,
I'll pass away—
More cholesterol than I could stand,
I'll pass away.

I'll pass away in the mornin'.
I'll pass away (in the mornin').
When I die, no one to blame but I,
I'll pass away.

[Tune: "When the Roll is Called Up Yonder":]

'Cause when the rolls are served back yonder I'll be there.
