Matana Roberts – Her Mighty Waters Run lyrics

Roll, roll, roll, we'll roll
We'll roll, roll, roll
We'll roll, roll, roll

(We'll roll the old chariot along)

Well, life goes on as the time for it last
Well, life goes on as the time for it last
Well, life goes on as the time for it last
And we'll all hang on behind

And we'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

If your mother wants to go, she shall wear a starry crown
If your brother wants to go, he shall wear a starry crown
If your mother wants to go, she shall wear a starry crown
And we'll all hang on behind

And we'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

It's so bad to feel discouraged than let our love grace our hearts
Yes, so bad to feel discouraged than let love grace our hearts
It's so bad to feel discouraged than let our love grace our hearts
And we'll all hang on behind

And we'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

Oh, we'd be alright if the wind was in our sails
Oh, we'd be alright if the wind was in our sails
Yes, we'd be alright if the wind was in our sails
And we'd all hang on behind

And we'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
And we'll all hang on behind

We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the golden chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll the old chariot along
We'll roll
