Oh Let Me Fly - Harry Belafonte
Written by:Harry Belafonte/Gene Corman/Milton Okun
Way down yonder in the middle of the field
Angel working at the chariot wheel
Not so particular 'bout working at the wheel
Just want to see how the chariot feels
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Let me fly to mount zion lord lord
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Let me fly to mount zion lord lord
Well I got a mother in the promised land
Ain't gonna stop till I shake her hand
Not so particular 'bout shaking her hand
Just wanna get to the promised land
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Let me fly to mount zion lord lord
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Let me fly to mount zion lord lord
I heard such a rumbling in the sky
I thought my lord was passing by
It was the good old chariot drawing nigh
Oh well it shook the earth swept the sky
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Let me fly to mount zion lord lord
To mount zion lord lord
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Let me fly to mount zion lord lord
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Oh let me fly oh let me fly
Let me fly to mount zion lord lord
Lord lord
