"River Jordan"

Crucifixion of Christ (Oh no!)
Ye-ye-yeah

I said, a how we a go cross river Jordan?
Said, a how we a go cross river Jordan?
Said, a how we a go cross river Jordan? (Yeah)

A with my bible in my hand
An' rod in my hand
Mi locks in my back

So we a go cross it
A so we, a so we a go cross river Jordan

I said, Moses-Moses
Take off dat shoes
'Cause, the place that foot standeth
Is the holy ground (Oh yeah)

I said, a how we a go cross river Jordan?
I said, a how we a go cross river Jordan?
River Jordan; River Jordan

I said, a so we a go cross river Jordan
I said, a so we a go cross river Jordan

A with a clean hands
An' a puring heart
Shall enter the promised land
Dem run wrong-town
One dem big [?]
Just to get righteous man
But they could not enter
In the promised land (Oh yeah)

Crucifixion; Crucifixion
Crucifixion of Christ (Oh ye-ye-yeah!)

Said, a how we a go cross river Jordan?
I said, a how we a go cross river Jordan?
Moses [?] raft across the river
How we a go cross river Jordan?
River Jordan; River Jordan
Hey, river Jordan

I said, a how we a go cross river Jordan?
A with my bible in my hand
An' my rod in di other
Mi locks into my back (Uh ye-ye-yey, yeah)

I said, a so we a go cross river Jordan
So we; so we a go cross it (Ye-yeah)
