Estimated Prophet Live at Veterans Memorial Coliseum New Haven CT May 10 1978 by The Grateful Dead Lyrics
[Intro]
One, two, three, four, five, six
[Verse 1]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
Been so long I felt this way
But I'm in no hurry, no
Rainbows end down that highway
Where ocean breezes blow
My time coming, voices saying
And they tell me where to go
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
'Cause I'm in no hurry
No, no, no, I know where I'll go
[Chorus]
California
Preaching on the burning shore
California
Yeah, I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel
Standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise
I know I'm gonna shine
[Verse 2]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
It's gonna be just like they say
Them voices tell me so
Been so long I felt this way
'Cause I'm in no hurry, no
Still I know I lead the way
And I know where to go
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
'Cause I'm in no hurry
No, no, no, I know where I'll go
[Chorus]
California
A prophet on the burning shore
California
I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel
Standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise
I know I'm gonna shine
[Bridge]
You've all been asleep, you would not believe me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Them voices telling me you will soon receive me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Shinin' on the beach, sea will part before me
(Fire wheel burning in the air)
You will follow me and we will rise to glory
(Way up the middle of the air)
And I'll call down thunder and speak the same
And my work fills the sky with flame, that's right
And might and glory gonna be my name
And they gonna light my way
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
Been so long I felt this way
But I'm in no hurry, no
This afternoon, streets turned gray
And I watch the cars below
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
[Chorus]
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
'Cause I'm in no hurry
No, no, 'cause I know where to go
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
'Cause I'm in no hurry
No, no, no, I know where to go
[Bridge]
No, no, no (Ooh)
No, no, no (Ooh)
No, no, no, no, no (Ooh)
No, no, no, no, no (Ooh)
No, no, no (Ooh)
No, no, no, no, no (Ooh)
No, no, no, no, no (Ooh)
No, no, no, no, no (Ooh)
