I thinks every day an’ I wish I could
Stan’ on de rock whar Moses stood;
Oh, Pharaoh’s army got drownded,
O baby, don’t you weep.
If you git dere befo’ I do,
Tell de Cap’n I’s a-comin’ too;
Pharaoh’s army got drownded,
O baby, don’t you weep.
If I had wings lak de angels have,
I never be caught drivin’ in anudder cab;
