Go Down Moses

Go down, Moses

Way down in Egypt land

Tell old Pharaoh

Let my people go

Moses died in the land of Oz

Let my people go

Where he was buried

Had never been told

Let my people go

I'm singing now

Go down, brother Moses

Way down in Egypt land

Tell old, tell old Pharaoh

To let my people go

Keep singing now

Go down, brother Moses

Way down in Egypt land

Tell old, tell old Pharaoh

To let my people go

Well, God called Moses on the mountain top

Why don't you let my people go?

He put his commandment in Moses' mind

Why don't you let my people go?

He stamped his laws in Moses' heart

Why don't you let my people go?

Said, "Moses, don't you leave my land behind"

Why don't you let my people go?

Singing now

Go down, brother Moses

Way down in Egypt land

Tell old, tell old Pharaoh

Let my people go
