Oh Freedom
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom over me
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave (oh, yes)
And go home to my Lord and be free
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom over me (over me)
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free, everybody!
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom, sing it sister
Oh, freedom over me
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
No more mourning, yeah
No more mourning
No more mourning
No more mourning over me
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
No more crying
No more crying (crying)
No more crying (sing it, people)
No more crying over me (over me)
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
Oh, freedom (tell it)
Oh, freedom (okay)
Oh, freedom (Hallelujah)
Oh, freedom over me
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
There'll be singin', that's what
There'll be singin' (yes)
There'll be singin'
There'll be singin' over me (yes, yes, yes, yes)
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
There'll be singin', one more time
There'll be singin'
There'll be singin'
There'll be singin' over me
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom over me
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom over me
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave (oh, yes)
And go home to my Lord and be free
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom over me (over me)
And before I'd be a slave I'd be buried in-a my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free, everybody!
