Well I left my man on the other side Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home On the underground railroad I will ride Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home At night I ride on that Northern Star Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home If I gotta go to heaven then I'll go that far Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home They say that old Dred Scott Will put his hooks on me But they ain'y made the shackles That'll keep me from wrestlin' free Well I left my family on the other side Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home They ain't got their freedom but they got their pride Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home And there's more of them as there's more of me Ain't nothing ever gonna stop us wwrestlin' free If Joshua need a soldier let him come to me As my life is but a shackle to this block of stone When Jericho is falling let them call on me Though I never had a past I got a will to be They say that Frederick Douglass Is an exception to their rules Well I just read my Bible And if they're right they're fools Well I left my man on the other side On the underground railroad I will ride At night I ride on a Northern Star If I gotta go to heaven then I'll go that far If I gotta go to heaven then I'll go that far If I gotta go to heaven then I'll go that far Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home
