If I could I surely would,
Stand on the rock where Moses stood.
Pharoah's army got drownded,
Oh, Mary don't you weep.
Chorus:
Oh, Mary don't you weep don't you mourn,
Oh, Mary don't you weep don't you mourn,
Pharoah's army got drownded,
Oh, Mary don't you weep.
Mary wore three links of chain,
Every link was Jesus name.
Pharoah's army got drownded
Oh, Mary don't you weep.
Mary wore three links of chain,
Every link was Freedom's name, etc.
One of these nights about twelve o'clock,
This old world is gonna reel and rock.
Moses stood on the Red Sea shore,
Smotin' the water with a two-by-four.
God gave Noah the rainbow sign,
No more water but fire next time.
The Lord told Moses what to do,
To lead those Hebrew children through
