A Patterned sunrise, swept along away the sunrise.
And over these underpasses, a towering mountain does rise.
But don't cross the river, not over there,
There'll be a mystery revealed, and I bet you dare.
And if I am to seek this place ya'll can see,
Whose chariot to follow so I can be free?
At night the stars cry, I gaize upon the lake of backyard.
And under these overpasses, a towering mountain does lie.
Don't cross the river, not over there,
There'll be a mystery revealed, that were meant to share.
So if I am to seek this place ya'll can see,
Whose chariot to follow so I can be free? Yeah...
Oh no, here we are again.
Oh no, here we are again.
My momma told me, "don't go 'cross that river,
Because you might not make it back, the beast gonna eat your heart."
She said, "don't go out there, stay upon your track.
This money has torn my family apart, and I cannot buy it back."
So of course I built my boat, and I was half upon my way.
And when I got to the other side, the water came rushing down,
Washed me away.
Freedom, freedom! Whose chariot?
Freedom, freedom! Whose chariot?
Freedom, freedom, whose chariot?
Whose chariot take me home? Take me home...
Oh no, I said I'm out that door again.
I left my house, my money, and my dearest friend.
I'm not going back, Jack, across the river,
Got a little bit of business that I'm doing today.
You didn't feel me, you can't really see no good.
I made my life out of stack of wood.
I've been moving 'cross the river today,
But whose chariot take me home? Take me home...
Whose chariot? Take me home...
Hallelujah, I'm coming home.
Chariot, got to, will ya take me?
Chariot, will ya, will ya take me?
Chariot, will ya, will ya take me?
Chariot, won't you pick me up and take me?
Chariot, got to, will ya take?
Chariot, just pick me up and take me!
Chariot, come and get me!
Whose chariot take me home? Take me home...
