Drinkin' Gourd
When the sun comes back
When the first quail calls
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Well, the riverbank is a mighty good road
Dead trees show you the way
Left foot, peg foot, traveling on
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Well, the river ends between two hills
Follow the drinkin' gourd
There's another river on the other side
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Where the little river meets the great big one
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
When the first quail calls
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Well, the riverbank is a mighty good road
Dead trees show you the way
Left foot, peg foot, traveling on
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Well, the river ends between two hills
Follow the drinkin' gourd
There's another river on the other side
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Where the little river meets the great big one
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting for
To carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
