"Spirit In The Sky" by Norman Greenbaum
When I die and they lay me to rest,
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best.
When they lay me down to die,
I'm going up to the spirit in the sky.
Going up to the spirit in the sky;
That's where I'm gonna go 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 named Jesus.
So you know that when you die,
He's gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky.
Goin on up to the Spirit in the sky
That's where you're gonna go when you die
When you die and they iay you to rest
You're gonna go the the place that's the best.
Never been a sinner I've never sinnned.
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 on up to the spirit in the sky,
That's where I'm gonna go when I die.
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best.

"Spirit in the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum. 1969. (Yes, the hippie era).
The album was also called "Spirit in the Sky", but since he was basically a one-hit wonder... well, just find the single where you can.

I love that song!
It was a Jesus people/hippie song back in the day.
