Why don't you swing down sweet chariot stop and let me ride Swing down sweet chariot stop and let me ride Rock me Lord rock me Lord calm and easy Well I've got a home on the other side Well weel well well
Why don't you swing down sweet chariot...
Ezekiel went down in the middle of a field He saw an angel workin' on a chariot wheel Wasn't so particular bout the chariot wheel Just wanted to see how a chariot feel
Why don't you swing down sweet chariot...
Ezekiel went down and he got on board Chariot went a bumpin' on down the road Zeke wasn't so particular bout the bumpin' of the road Just wanted to lay down his heavy load
Why don't you swing down sweet chariot...
Well I got a father in the promised land Ain't no more stoppin' still I shake his hand Rock me Lord rock me Lord calm and easy Well I've got a home on the other side
