Moses stood
On the mountain
Looked over

To the promised land
Took his people
Through the valley

Said I hope
You understand


I may not get
There with you
Keep on marching

Just the same
There ain't
No turning back

It's a one-way track
When you jump
That freedom train


They were running
Through the darkness

They were bleeding
From the briars
Drowning out

Those howling dogs
They heard miss
Tubman's cry


Now I'm not worried
About anything

I'm not
Fearing any man
I have stood

On the mountain
I have seen
The promised land
