Текст песни
Go ahead and drive the nails in my hand
Laugh at me where you stand
Go ahead and say as much as you mean
The day will come when you will see
'Cause I'll rise again
Yes I will
And the reason why I'm gonna do that
Ain't no power on earth can tie me down
Yes I'll rise again
Death can't keep me in the ground
Listen, if you please
Go ahead and mark my name
My love for you is still the same
Go ahead and bury me
Very soon I'll be free
'Cause I'll rise again
Yes I will
Ain't no power on earth can tie me down
Oh no
Yes I'll rise again
Oh I'll rise, I'll rise again
And the reason why I'm gonna do that
Death can't keep me in the ground
Oh no
Fellas if y'all don't mind
Let me do that last verse
Listen if you please
Go ahead and say I'm dead and gone
But you will see that you was wrong
Go ahead and try to hide the sun
But all will see that I'm the one
'Cause I'll come again
I'm coming back again
Yes I will
Ain't no power on earth can keep me back
Ain't no power
It just can't keep me back
Yes I'll come again
Yes I will, yes I will
And the reason why I'm coming back
Come to take my people back
Oh I've come
Come to take my people back
Yeah I've come
Come to take my people back
Say it again, say it again yeah
Come to take my people back
One more time, one more time yeah
Come to take my people back
