Lay Me Down
Quelle: Spotify
Let us find a better way
My father said in silent prayer
Let the light of love
Peace be everywhere
Let us learn to take our share
The day he passed away
Before he died
I heard him say
The lord's light shines on me
Lay me down by that old railroad track
Lay me down with the world at my back
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery
Lay me down and let me be free
All our lives a guiding hand
He worked his heart out on the land
From the morning sun
Until the day was done
The good lord gave him strength to carry on
The city took his land away
But not half the crops
He had to pay
Get down on your knees and pray
Lay me down by that old railroad track
Lay me down with the world at my back
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery
Lay me down let me be free
Lay me down by that old railroad track
Lay me down with the world at my back
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery
Lay me down let me be free
Sing it children
[Lay me down by that old railroad track]
That's where I wanna be
[Lay me down with the world at my back]
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery
Lay me down let me be free
C'mon children
Lay me down by that old railroad track
Lay me down with the world at my back
Spent my life and broke my back in slavery
Lay me down let me be free
