25. Go Round, Go Round

Chorus-
Go round, go round,
look at de mornin' star
Go round, go round,
we got a soul to save.

1
Hadn't bin fo' Satan
we wouldn't had to pray
Now Satan bruk God's holy law
and we got a soul to save.
2
When I wuz a layin' at hell's dark door
no one to pity po' me
Maussuh Jedus he game ridin' by
and bought my liberty.

Unique to Saint Helena Island.
