A patterned sunrise swept along away the sunrise
And over these underpasses a towering mountain does rise
But don't cross the river, not over there
There will be a mystery revealed and I bet you dare
And if I am to seek this place y'all can see
Whose chariot to follow so I can be free?At night the stars cry
I gaze upon a lake of backyard
And under these overpasses a towering mountain does lie
But don't cross the river, not over there
There will be a mystery revealed that we're meant to share
So if I am to seek this place y'all can see
Whose chariot to follow so I can be free?Oh no, here we are again
Oh no, here we are againMy mama told me, "Don't go cross that river
Because you might not make it back
The beast gonna eat your heart"
She said, "Don't go out there and stay upon your track
This money has torn my family apart and I cannot buy it back"So of course I built my boat and I was half upon my way
And when I got to the other side the water came rushing down
Washed me awayWhose chariot? Freedom
Whose chariot?
Take me home
Take me homeOh no, said I'm out that door again
I left my house, my money and my dearest friend
I'm not going back, Jack, across the river
Got a little bit of business that I'm doing todayYou didn't fell me, you can't really see no good
I made my life out of a stack of wood
I've been moving cross the river today
But whose chariot take me home?Whose chariot?
Take me home
Hallelujah, I'm coming homeWho chariot gotta will you take me?
Who chariot will you, will you take me?
Who chariot will you, will you take me?
Who chariot would you pick me up and take me?Who chariot gotta will you take me?
Who chariot just pick me up and take me
Who chariot come and get me
Whose chariot take me home? Take me home
