Oh freedom, oh freedom,
Oh freedom, oh freedom, over me,
And before I'll be a slave,
I'll be buried in my grave,
And go home to my Lord
And be free.
There's no more moaning
No more moaning
No more moaning over me
Before I'll be a slave,
I'll be buried in my grave,
Go home to my Lord
And be free
There's no more Jim Crow
No more Jim Crow
No more Jim Crow over me
And before I'll be a slave,
I'll be buried in my grave,
And go home to my Lord
And be free.
It's oh, freedom, oh oh freedom,
Oh freedom, over me,
And before I'll be a slave,
I'll be buried in my grave,
And go home to my Lord
And be free.
Go home to my Lord
And be free
