Follow

Follow the drinking gourd

Follow the drinking gourd

For the old man is a-waiting for to carry you to freedom

Follow the drinking gourd

When the Sun comes back

And the first quail calls

Follow the drinking gourd

For the old man is a-waiting for to carry you to freedom

If you follow the drinking gourd

Follow the drinking gourd

Follow the drinking gourd

For the old man is a-waiting for to carry you to freedom

Follow the drinking gourd

Now the riverbank makes a very good road

The dead trees will show you the way

Left foot peg foot traveling on

Just you follow the drinking gourd

Follow the drinking gourd

Follow the drinking gourd

For the old man is a-waiting for to carry you to freedom

Follow the drinking gourd

Now the river ends between two hills

Follow the drinking gourd

There's another river on the other side

Just you follow the drinking gourd

Follow the drinking gourd

Follow the drinking gourd

For the old man is a-waiting for to carry you to freedom

 

Follow the drinking gourd
