Go Down Moses
We walked through the desert and crawled on the sand
Drank from the river in the palm of our hand
Looked out over the neighborhod of Salem
Knew we'd made it to the Promised Land
Knew we'd made it to the Promised Lane
And we sang
Go down, go down Moses
Walk through the bottom with me
Go down, go down Moses
Lead the way home through the middle of the sea
Somebody came in the middle of the night
Took us to the water with no end in sight
Locked us up down deep inside
We didn't stop crying until we saw the light
We didn't stop cryinig until we saw the light
And we sang
Go down, go down Moses
Walk through the bottom with me
Go down, go down Moses
Lead the way home through the middle of the sea
I look out the window at everybody else
Walking on by and I sing to myself
Maybe one day we'll all accept
There ain't nothing wrong if there's anything left
There ain't nothinig wrong if there's anything left
There's truth in numbers and the numbers don't lie
People don't like it when they get too high
We push and we pull and we don't understand
Why we never make it to the Promised Land
Why we never make it to the Promised Land
And we sing
Go down, go down Moses
Walk through the bottom with me
Go down, go down Moses
Lead the way home through the middle of the sea
