Sail the Jordan


When that trouble is getting hard up here
You and I know better to tell there
Get on a boat, sail the Jordan and jump in the river and drown

Deeper and deeper as my mother shall feel the pain
And her child shall gonna leave the sand
Get on a boat and jump in the river
Get on a boat, get on a boat and jump in the river and drown

Well I sing for my sister, trying as we may
We've got no place to hide and nowhere to stay
Get on a boat, get on a boat and jump in the river and drown

My child all the world is yours
I want to pray, fight it alone
Get on a boat, sail the Jordan and jump in and drown
Get on a boat, sail the Jordan, jump in the river and drown
Sail the Jordan          When that trouble is getting hard up here   You and I know better to tell there    Get on a boat, sail the Jordan and jump in the river and drown      Deeper and deeper as my mother shall feel the pain   And her child shall gonna leave the sand   Get on a boat and jump in the river   Get on a boat, get on a boat and jump in the river and drown      Well I sing for my sister, trying as we may   We've got no place to hide and nowhere to stay   Get on a boat, get on a boat and jump in the river and drown      My child all the world is yours   I want to pray, fight it alone   Get on a boat, sail the Jordan and jump in and drown   Get on a boat, sail the Jordan, jump in the river and drown
