Go Down Moses

[Verse 1] Moving on, moving on Isn’t that what I’m supposed to do? Just hold it back and keep moving on [Verse 2] Pushing on, pushing on Isn’t that what I’m supposed to do? But it’s so hard to keep pushing on [Verse 3] I’m moving on, moving on Isn’t that what everybody tells me I gotta do? But it’s so hard moving on without you [Verse 4] Every morning waking in a fever wet and shaking My heart inside me pounding, muddy water all around me Cold, shocked and speechless, can’t anybody reach us And why, oh God, why? [Chorus] Go down, go down, Moses Go down to the city of New Orleans Go part the muddy water Let your people cross over Go down! [Verse 5] I’m moving on, moving on That’s what I’m trying to do Just holding back and moving on [Verse 7] Keeping on, keeping on That’s what I’m trying so hard to do But it’s so hard keeping on without you [Verse 8] Gone and lost my patience with this hopeless situation Yeah, I’m alive, I’m a lonely sole survivor Spared me for some reason so I’m picking up the pieces But why? Oh God, why? [Chorus] Go down, go down, Moses Go down to the city of New Orleans Go part the muddy water Let your people cross over Go down!
