Oh freedom oh freedom oh freedom over me

And before I'd be a slave I'll be buried in my grave

And go home to my Lord and be free

No more mourning no more mourning no more mourning over me

And before I'd be a slave I'll be buried in my grave

Go home to my Lord and be free

Oh freedom oh freedom oh freedom over me

And before I'd be a slave I'll be buried in my grave

Go home to my Lord and be free

Come go with me to that land

Come and go with me to that land

Go with me to that land where I'm bound

Come and go with me to that land

Come and go with me to that land

Go with me to that land where I'm bound

There's no kneeling in that land

There's no kneeling in that land

No kneeling in that land where I'm born

There's no kneeling in that land

There's no kneeling in that land

No kneeling in that land where I'm born

Why don't you come and go with me to that land

Come and go with me to that land

Go with me to that land where I'm bound

Come and go with me to that land

Come and go with me to that land

Go with me to that land where I'm bound

Gonna ask my brother won't you come with me

Gonna ask my brother aren't you going with me

Gonna ask my captain won't you let me go

Ask my captain won't you let me go
