Lyrics
The suns still rising in the summer sky, but I'll be sweating in this field till the day that I die
They done tore my flesh down to my bones, took my brother right from our home
And worked my poor little mama into the ground
Moses said let my people go, but I ain't seen nothing to give me hope, oh no
All of God's children in a foreign land, Pharaoh ruling with an iron hand
And there ain't no freedom that can be found
Did you ever hear that thunderin' sound, did you ever hear that thunderin' sound
Did you ever hear that thunderin' sound, means the train is coming to take you home
Did you ever hear that whistle blow, like a trumpet sound calling you to go
You ain't gonna follow the river shore or set out underneath the drinking gourd
Your chariot awaits you better get on board
It was then I heard it clear as day, it was then I heard him callin' my name
It was then I heard ol' St. Peter callin' my name, I'm gonna get on that train to the promised land
Oooh
