lyrics
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is waiting just to carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Well the river bank makes a mighty good road,
Dead trees will show you the way
Left foot, peg foot, travelin' on
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Well the river ends, between two hills
Follow the drinkin' gourd
There's another river on the other side
Follow the drinkin' gourd
The old man is waiting to carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd
