My aunt is trying to find out the name of the song and artist for the following lyrics: "...I'm going to see the spirit in the sky." Goes something like that. Any help would be appreciated.

It's called 'Spirit In the Sky' by Norman Greenbaum in 1969 and was covered by Doctor And The Medics in 1986
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best
When they lay me down to die
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
(spirit in the sky)
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
(when I die)
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
Prepare yourself, you know it's a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He's gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
(spirit in the sky)
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
(when I die)
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
Never been a sinner, I've never sinned
I've got a friend in Jesus
So you know that when I die
He's gonna set me up with the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
(spirit in the sky)
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
(when I die)
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
thanks for the info. My aunt will be happy I could find that for her.
Not a problem, glad I could be of service.
