Barry McGuire: He's Comin' Back

(All right!)
(He's coming back!)
Oh, won't you listen to me brother?
I'll tell you what I hear
The days on earth are numbered,
You know the end is gettin' very near
Well, it's time that he was coming back
To take his own away
Don't you want to be standing on the ready?
'Cause no man knows the day

He's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Yes, he's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Comin' back!
Though no man knows the hour
And no man knows the day
He's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Yeah, he's comin' back, everybody (He's comin' back)
Ah, he's coming to take his own away
He's gonna take us away now, amen

(Woo)
Well, you can read it in your newspaper
And watch on your color TV
You know the handwriting is upon the wall
It's up tall for all to see
Well, there's earthquakes and famines
Violence and crime,
You know the Bible plainly tells us,
That we're livin' in the end of time

But he's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Yes, he's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Comin' back!
Though no man knows the hour
And no man knows the day
He's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Yeah, he's comin' back, he's coming' back(He's comin' back)
That's right
He's coming to take his own
Gonna take us away, now
Coming back--going to take us away

(Instrumental Interlude)

So when the sun has lost its power
And the moon longer shines
All the stars are fallin' from the sky
You know we're living in the end of time
Thank God it's almost over
And soon we're goin' home
We're going to live with him forever
And sing before his throne

He's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Jesus comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Though no man knows the hour
And no man knows the day
He's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
Yeah, He's comin' back, (He's comin' back)
He's coming back
He's coming back to take his own
Goona take us away, now, take us away

Why, we're living in the end of time,
We're living in the end of time,
You're making up your mind right now
What you're gonna find

Why, we're living in the end of time,
Why, we're living in the end of time,
Jesus is coming back!
Jesus is coming back!
He's coming back!
He's coming back!
He's coming back!
He's coming ba-a-a-ck!
