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

Written by：Harry Woods/Irving Burgie[00:00:01]

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[00:00:31]

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

I passed a door that said[00:00:36]

Down with sin[00:00:37]

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

We are going down Jordan[00:00:41]

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[00:00:59]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:02]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:04]

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

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:01:09]

Well the leader walked up and he shook my hand[00:01:12]

Said I want you to be a holy man[00:01:14]

Right away I made a big decision[00:01:17]

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

I started over to get some food[00:01:22]

When some sisters approached me in a mystic mood[00:01:24]

They dunked me in the water 'bout four five times[00:01:27]

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

Singing I've got a sword in my hand[00:01:32]

I'm going to use it well[00:01:37]

I've got a sword in my hand[00:01:42]

I'm going to use it well[00:01:47]

I was drenched to me skin and I was feeling cold[00:01:52]

But the sight of the food made me take a hold[00:01:54]

The sisters started to break away[00:01:57]

They said[00:01:59]

Kneel believers kneel and pray[00:02:00]

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

In the meantime me taste buds was running wild[00:02:04]

I was about to fall clear out of me seat[00:02:07]

When a man jumped up and said[00:02:09]

Before you eat[00:02:11]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:12]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:14]

And if you want to go to Heaven when you die[00:02:17]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:19]

Mourn children mourn[00:02:22]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:24]

And if you want to go to Heaven when you die[00:02:27]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:29]

Mourn children mourn[00:02:32]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:34]

And if you want to go to Heaven when you die[00:02:37]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:39]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain[00:02:42]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:02:44]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain[00:02:47]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:02:49]

Don't talk 'bout the leaders they treat me good[00:02:51]

Plenty sweet oil and plenty food[00:02:54]

Brother it was then that I realized[00:02:57]

Ev'ry man on earth should be baptized[00:02:59]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:16]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:18]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:21]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:23]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:26]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:28]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:31]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:33]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:36]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:38]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:41]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:43]
