Freedom Ride Songtext
von Largo

Goin′ away, and it might be long
I know they'll miss me when I′m gone
May be gone a long long time
Won't know 'til I cross that line

Goin′ way down there underground
Jailer take me freedom bound
Go down Moses, shine a light
I see you and I′ll be alright

I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Ride on a train goin whoo-whoo-whoo
I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Take me on a freedom ride with you

Well I don't know but I′ve been told
Streets in Harlem paved with gold
Well I know where I'm goin′ to
Sweet chariot gon' pull me through


I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Ride on a train goin′ whoo-whoo-whoo
I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Take me on a freedom ride with you

Ohhhh, wanna freedom ride
Ohhhhhh yeah, I wanna freedom ride

Steal away, the preacher cried
We're goin' on a freedom ride
Don′t know when it′s gonna be
But down the line, we will be free

I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Ride on a train goin' whoo-whoo-whoo
I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Take me on a freedom ride with you

I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Ride on a train goin′ whoo-whoo-whoo
I wanna be your rider, rider, rider
Take me on a freedom ride with you
