Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' with the gold of Canaan
Comin' over in Zion
Comin' I tell you, children
She's comin' to carry me home
Well, well, well, well, well
Look over yonder, what I see
Seems like the chariot coming after me
Why don't you swing down, sweet chariot?
Stop and let me ride
Swing down, chariot, stop and let me ride
Rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
Why don't you swing down, sweet chariot?
Stop and let me ride
Swing down, chariot, stop and let me ride
Rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
Why don't you swing, swing, swing, swing?
Swing, swing, swing, swing?
Swing, swing, swing, swing?
Swing, swing, swing, swing?
Well, Ezekiel was out in the middle of the field
He said he saw an angel with a chariot wheel
He wasn't so particular 'bout the chariot wheel
He just wanted to see how a chariot feel
Why don't you swing down, sweet chariot?
Stop and let me ride
Swing down, chariot, stop and let me ride
Rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
Why don't you swing, swing, swing, swing?
Swing, swing, swing, swing?
Swing, swing, swing, swing?
Swing, swing, swing, swing?
Well, Ezekiel went down and got on board
The chariot went bumping on down the road
Zeke wasn't particular 'bout the bumping of the road
He just wanted to lay down his heavy load
Why don't you swing down, sweet chariot?
Stop and let me ride
Swing down, chariot, stop and let me ride
Rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
Well, I've got a father in the promised land
I won't stop until I shake his hand
Rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
Why don't you swing down, sweet chariot?
Stop and let me ride
Swing down, chariot, stop and let me ride
Rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
