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
Pushin' on, pushin' on
Isn’t that what I’m supposed to do?
But it’s so hard to keep pushin' on
I’m movin' on, movin' on
Isn’t that what everybody tells me I gotta do?
But it’s so hard movin' on without you
Every morning waking in a fever wet and shaking
My heart inside me pounding, muddy water all around me
Cold, shocked and speechless, can’t anybody reach us
And why, oh God, why?
Go down, go down, Moses
Go down to the city of New Orleans
Go part the muddy water
Let your people cross over
Go down!
I’m movin' on, movin' on
That’s what I’m tryin' to do
Just holding back and movin' on
Keepin' on, keepin' on
That’s what I’m trying so hard to do
But it’s so hard keepin' 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 to the city of New Orleans
Go part the muddy water
Let your people cross over
Go down!
Isn’t that what I’m supposed to do?
Just hold it back and keep movin' on
Isn’t that what I’m supposed to do?
But it’s so hard to keep pushin' on
Isn’t that what everybody tells me I gotta do?
But it’s so hard movin' on without you
My heart inside me pounding, muddy water all around me
Cold, shocked and speechless, can’t anybody reach us
And why, oh God, why?
Go down to the city of New Orleans
Go part the muddy water
Let your people cross over
That’s what I’m tryin' to do
Just holding back and movin' on
That’s what I’m trying so hard to do
But it’s so hard keepin' on without you
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 to the city of New Orleans
Go part the muddy water
Let your people cross over
