Go Down Moses

Lyrics

Movin' on, movin' on
 Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?
 Just hold it back and keep movin' on
 Keep movin' on
 Pushin' on, pushin' on
 Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?
 But it's so hard
 To keep pushin' on
 Pushin' on
 I'm movin' on, movin' on
 Isn't that what everybody tells me I gotta do?
 Oh, yeah
 But it's so hard movin' on without you
 Every mornin' wakin' in a fever
 Where I'm shakin' (?)
 My heart started pounding (?)
 Muddy water all around me (?)
 Cold, shocked and speechless, can anybody reach us?
 And why?
 Oh, God, why?
 Go down, go down, Moses
 Go down, Moses
 Go down to the city of New Orleans
 City of New Orleans
 Go back to muddy water (?)
 ---- muddy water
 Let your people cross over
 Go down, yeah
 I'm movin' on, movin' on
 Keep movin" on
 That's what I'm tryin' to do
 Just holding back and... movin' on
 Keeping on, keeping on, yeah
 That's what I'm trying so hard to do
 Oh, yeah
 But it's so hard keeping on without you
 Gone and lost my patience with this hopeless situation
 Oh, yeah
 I'm alive
 I'm a lonely sole survivor
 Spared me for some reason, so I'm picking up the pieces
 But why?
 Oh, God, why?
 Go down, go down, Moses
 Go down, Moses
 Go down to the city of New Orleans
 City of New Orleans
 And ---- ---- muddy water
 ---- the muddy water
 Just let your people cross over
 Go down, yeah
 Go down
 Oh, Moses, go down
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 Oh, go down, Moses
 Moses
 Moses
 Moses!
 Sweet Moses!
 Come on! Come on! Come on
 Yeah, yeah, yeah!
 Sweet Moses!
 Sweet Moses!
