Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Paul and Silas in Jail (G W Phillips)
What I'm not seeing here (nor anywhere else) is the Paul and Silas song that goes (giving the verses I recall)
Paul and Silas, bound in jail, Had no money for to go their bail. Keep your eyes on the prize, Hold on! Hold on! Keep your eyes on the prize, Hold on!
Only thing that we did wrong Was stayin' in the wilderness too long. Keep your eyes...
Only thing that we did right Was the day we begun to fight. Keep your eyes...
Pete Seeger sang it I'm quite sure on his Live at Carnegie Hall album.
