lyrics

You and I
We held our codes
Long before toting heavenly loads
Let’s go home right now
Let’s go home and tell our story

I’m going to put on my robe in glory
I’m going home to tell…
I’m going to put on my robe in glory
I’m going home to tell my story

You and I
We stole the show
But there was much we did not know
Let’s go home right now
Let’s go home and tell the story

I’m going to put on my robe in glory
I’m going home to tell…
I’m going to put on my robe in glory
I’m going home to tell my story

Well I’ve been coming over hills and mountains
I’m going to drink from that Christian fountain
You know all of God’s sons and daughters that morning
Will drink that old healing water

I’m going to put on my robe in glory
I’m going home to tell…
I’m going to put on my robe in glory
I’m going home to tell…
I’m going to put on my robe in glory
I’m going home to tell…
I’m going to wear this robe in glory
Let’s go home and tell our story

Willie Wisely image

Willie Wisely Saint Paul, Minnesota

Equal parts Minnesotan music scene veteran and Laurel Canyon resident/devotee, Willie Wisely remains that rare bird mixing profound power pop with arena-sized showmanship, a troubadour on an all night rave up, a cold kombucha on a hot California day, a McCartney-ite taking a break from his Japanese import of “Ram” for a quick Canyon run listening to João Gilberto. ... more
