I was born down in Mississippi Where the corn and cotton grow Sitting on a creek bank Dreaming where my life will go Drifting from town to town Playing rock and roll Trying to be a star My name in lights was my goal
(Chorus) I'm gonna stay with you Lord in found your love so true I'm gonna stay with you No matter what the world may do I'm gonna make it through I'll stay with you
Well I stopped into a cafe To get something to eat But I got an invitation To the church down the street All my life of searching But I was never satisfied Untill I met Jesus I'm so glad I'm sanctified
