Harry Belafonte – Michael, Row The Boat Ashore lyrics
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
This old world's a mighty big place, hallelujah
It's got satan all over its face, hallelujah
Jordan's river is chilly and cold, hallelujah
But it warms the human soul, hallelujah
So, Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row that boat ashore, hallelujah

Did you hear what old Jonah said, hallelujah
When the world thought he was dead, hallelujah
I was taking' me a ride, hallelujah
In that big old whales inside, hallelujah
So, Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row that boat ashore, hallelujah

They put Daniel in the lion's den, hallelujah
And he walked right out again, hallelujah
The reason them felines permitted that, hallelujah
Was that Daniel had no fat, hallelujah
So Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row that boat ashore, hallelujah

They nailed Jesus to the cross, hallelujah
But his faith was never lost, hallelujah
So christian soldiers off to war, hallelujah
Hold that line in Arkansas, hallelujah
Like Joshua at Jericho, hallelujah
Alabama's next to go, hallelujah
So Mississippi kneel and pray, hallelujah
Some more buses on the way, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
