I Will Rise Up / Ain't No More Cane

歌詞

In the darkest hour In the dead of night As the storm clouds gather And the lightning strikes And the thunder rolls And the cold rain blows The future it holds What, God only knows (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) Until I meet my end You should have been on the river Back in nineteen and four You could have found you a dead man Lord, at every turn row (Every turn row) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) Until I meet my end You should have been on the river Back in nineteen and ten They was working the women Like they was working the men (Oh, like they were workin' the men) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) Until I meet my end Now, Captain, don't do me Like you done poor Shine Now you done worked that bully Until he been stone blind ('til he been stone blind) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) Until I meet my end Now there's some in the kitchen And there's some on the farm And there's some in the graveyard And there's some going home (Yeah, some goin' home) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) And I will stand tall (Until I meet my end) Until I meet my end (And I will rise up) And I will rise up (Though I be a dead man) I said yes and amen (And I will stand tall) I will stand tall Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end Until I meet my end
