(Roebuck "Pop" Staples) |
|
Marching on the freedom highway |
|
Marching each and every day |
|
Marching on the freedom highway |
|
Marching each and every day |
|
I made up my mind, and I won't turn around |
|
I made up my mind, and I won't turn around |
|
There is just one thing that I can't understand about friends |
|
Why some folks think freedom is not designed for all men |
|
There are so many people living their lives perplexed |
|
Wondering in their minds what's gonna happen next |
|
Chorus |
|
Found dead people in the forest(Alternate lyrics: You got your brothers and your sisters in the choir room) |
|
Tallahatchie river and lakes |
|
The whole wide world is wonderin' what's wrong with the United States |
|
Yes we want peace if it can be found |
|
We're gonna stay freedom highway, we're not gonna turn around |
|
And do you (do you) do you think I voted for the right man |
|
Who said we will over come |
|
I march the freedom highway until the day is done |
|
Chorus |
|
I'm gonna keep on marching on the freedom highway |
|
And I'm not gonna turn around |
