Swing Down, Chariot
Why don't you swing down sweet chariot, stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
Oh rock me lord, rock me lord
Calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
Why don't you swing down sweet chariot, stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
Oh rock me lord, rock me lord
Calm and easy I've got a home on the other side
Swing swing swing swing...
Looked over yonder, what did I see?
Two white chariots, lord coming after me
Two white horses running side by side
Swing down sweet chariot, lord and let me try to ride
Why don't you, swing down chariot, stop and let me ride Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
Oh rock me lord, rock me lord
Calm and easy I've got a home on the other side
I met my mother this morning, coming up the hill so soon Trying to get to heaven in due time, 'fore the heaven doors close
Trying to get to heaven in due time, 'fore the heaven doors close
Wake me, shake me, don't let me sleep too late
Wake up, judgement in the morning, swing on the golden gate
Wake up, judgement in the morning, swing on the golden gate
Wake me, shake me, don't let me sleep to late
Trying to get to heaven in due time, 'fore the heaven doors close
Trying to get to heaven in due time, 'fore the heaven doors close
Don't you know that I'm bound I'm bound for higher ground
I'm seeking the golden crown
Can't remain on this earthly plane I'm bound for higher ground
I'm bound, I'm bound for higher ground
I'm seeking, I'm seeking the golden crown
Can't remain on this earthly plane, I'm bound for higher ground
