I'm swinging low, sweet chariot

I'm swinging low, sweet chariot

Coming for to carry me home

Painted my face black and black and black and black

Swallowed my tongue twice today

What a shame, what a waste, they'll say

He's in hell, but we're the ones who pay

He's in hell, for all his selfish ways

What a shame, what a waste, I'm sure they'll say

I'm swinging low

I'm stinking now

I'll trickle down

This do in remembrance of me

Send me down for my

My, my

Release

What a shame, what a waste, they'll say

He's in hell, but we're the ones who pay

He's in hell, for all his selfish ways

What a shame, what a waste, I'm sure they'll say
