Goin' Down Jordan - Harry Belafonte[00:00:00]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:10]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:12]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:15]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:00:17]

I was livin' me life as an Anglican[00:00:20]

Let me tell you how I changed to a Baptist man[00:00:23]

I was livin' me life as an Anglican[00:00:25]

Let me tell you how I changed to a Baptist man[00:00:28]

One night I was walking down Fred'rick street[00:00:30]

Poor and hungry no shoes on me feet[00:00:33]

I passed a door that said "Down with sin"[00:00:36]

It was the smell of food that pull me in[00:00:38]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:40]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:43]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:46]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:00:48]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:51]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:53]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:56]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:00:58]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:01]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:03]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:06]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:01:08]

Well the leader walked up and he shook my hand[00:01:11]

Said "I want you to be a holy man"[00:01:13]

Right away I made a big decision[00:01:16]

Me stomach was a growling for this new religion[00:01:19]

I started over to get some food[00:01:21]

When some sisters approached me in a mystic mood[00:01:23]

They dunked me in the water 'bout four five times[00:01:26]

I couldn't see a thing 'cause I was almost blind[00:01:29]

Singing I've got a sword in my hand[00:01:31]

I'm going to use it well[00:01:36]

I was drenched to me skin and I was feeling cold[00:01:51]

But the sight of the food made me take a hold[00:01:53]

The sisters started to break away[00:01:56]

They said "Kneel believers kneel and pray"[00:01:58]

I prayed and I prayed in a new-found style[00:02:01]

In the meantime me taste buds was running wild[00:02:03]

I was about to fall clear out of me seat[00:02:06]

When a man jumped up and said "Before you eat[00:02:08]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:11]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:13]

And if you want to go to Heaven when you die [00:02:16]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:18]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain [00:02:40]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:02:43]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain [00:02:45]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:02:48]

Don't talk 'bout the leaders they treat me good [00:02:50]

Plenty sweet oil and plenty food[00:02:53]

Brother it was then that I realized[00:02:55]

Ev'ry man on earth should be baptized[00:02:58]

Going down Jordan[00:03:00]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:03]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:05]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:07]

Going down Jordan[00:03:10]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:12]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:15]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:17]

Going down Jordan[00:03:20]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:22]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:24]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:27]
