Steal Away (from the album “My Lord What a Mornin”, 1960) Songtext
von Harry Belafonte

Mmh, mmh
Mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh

Steal away, steal away
Steal away to Jesus
Steal away, steal away home
I ain′t got long to stay here

Green trees abandoned
Poor sinner's times are tremblin′
The trumpet sounds within my soul
I ain't got long to stay here


Steal away
Hmm, mmh
Mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh
Steal away home
I ain't got long to stay here

My Lord, he calls me
He calls me by the thunder
The trumpet sounds within my soul
I ain′t got long to stay here

Hmm
Mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh

Steal away home
I ain′t got long to stay here
