Written by：Irving Burgie

Go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

I tell you go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Go down emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone the gonna

Go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Well the moon still in the sky

And the sleep still in you eye

But when you hear me sing that gonna

You better make dem hammers ring

I tell you to go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Out to get enough

Go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Don't the gonna

Go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Well you had a big time last night

And some of your heads are tight

But when I call this roll please Lord

I don't want to miss a soul

So get up and go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Out to get enough

Go down Emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Don't the gonna

Go down emanuel road man and boy

Got to break that stone

When you break dem one by one

But man you just begun

'Cause today I tell you something new

You gotta break dem two by two

So come on and go down Emanuel Road man and boy

Got to break that stone

Out to get enough

Go down Emanuel road man and boy
