some people struggle for riches and all of the things they will buy but all of my hopes for treasures are away beyond the skies heaven holds all my treasures more precious than diamonds and gold up there i ll meet my darlin whom god has called back to the fold in this world i m just a drifter i know nothing but sorrow but to me somehow it don t matter for i know she s waiting up there heaven holds all my treasures more precious than diamonds and gold up there i ll meet my darlin whom god has called back to the fold i stand on the banks of the river and i stare at the water so deep and think of my darlin then i bow my head and weep heaven holds all my treasures more precious than diamonds and gold up there i ll meet my darlin whom god has called back to the fold
