Freedom Trilogy (Oh Freedom, Come and Go with Me, I’m on My Way) Songtext
von Odetta

Oh freedom
Oh freedom
Oh freedom over me
And before I′d be a slave
I'd be buried in my grave
Go home to my Lord and be free

No more mourning
No more mourning
No more mourning over me
And before I′d be a slave
I'd be buried in my grave
Go home to my Lord and be free

Oh freedom
Oh freedom
Oh freedom over me
And before I'd be a slave
I′d be buried in my grave
Go home to my Lord and be free

"′Come and Go with Me"'


Come, go with me to that land
Come, go with me to that land
Go with me to that land where I′m bound

Come and go with me to that land
Come and go with me to that land
Go with me to that land where I'm bound

There′s no kneeling in that land
There's no kneeling in that land
No kneeling in that land where I′m bound

There's no kneeling in that land
There's no kneeling in that land
No kneeling in that land where I′m bound

Won′t you come and go with me to that land
Come and go with me to that land
Go with me to that land where I'm bound

Come and go with me to that land
Come and go with me to that land
Go with me to that land where I′m bound

"'I′m on My Way"'


I′m on my way and I won't turn back
I'm on my way and I won′t turn back
I′m on my way and I won't turn back
I′m on my way, thank God, I'm on my way

Gonna ask my brother, won′t you come with me?
Gonna ask my brother, won't you come with me?
I′m gonna ask my brother, won't you come with me?
I'm on my way, thank God, I′m on my way

Gonna ask my Captain, won′t you let me go?
Ask my Captain, won't you let me go?
I′m gonna ask my Captain, won't you let me go?
I′m on my way, thank God, I'm on my way

And if he says no, no, no, no, I′ll go anyhow
If he says no, gonna go anyhow
And if he says no, gonna go anyhow
I'm on my way, thank God, I'm on my way

I′m on my way, I′m on my way, I won't turn back
I′m on my way and I won't turn back
I′m on my way and I won't turn back
I′m on my way, thank God, I'm on my way
