Freedom Street Lyrics


Let's not quarrel, let's not fight
Let's get together, we all can unite
Then take off these chains from off our feet'Cause we gonna walk, we gonna walk
Walk down freedom street
Everybody knows we gonna walk, we gonna walk
Walk, walk, walk, down freedom streetLet me tell you people
United we stand, divided we fall
Respect your brothers, sisters and all
Let's not deal with illiteracy, work it out intelligentlyLord, Lord, 'cause we gonna walk, we gonna walk
Walk, walk, walk, down freedom street
Everybody knows we gonna walk, we gonna walk
Walk, walk, walk, down freedom street, dear, God, [Incomprehensible]Can't see clearly 'cause I worked hard last night
It must be a vision 'cause there's no change in sight
I see a big, big street, where all hands meet
It must be freedom street, oh Lord, freedom streetEverybody knows we gonna walk, we gonna walk
Walk, walk, walk, down freedom street
Everybody knows we gonna talk in the whole wide world
As we go walkin' slowlyWalk, we gonna talk, we gonna walk, ah

Let's get together, Lord
We gonna sing, we gonna shout
Where we gonna walk

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Freedom Singers were founded in 1962 by Cordell Reagon, Bernice Johnson (Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon), Charles Neblett and Rutha Mae Harris. During the early 1960s the Freedom Singers, from Albany, performed throughout the country to raise funds for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and to inform audiences about the grassroots organizing campaigns expanding in communities across the South.
