I'm wondering if it's the same song as Gospel Train (Get On Board, Children) that was very popular during the years of the U.S. Civil Rights campaign. We really do need to find a good resource for Huddie Ledbetter songs. -Joe- |
Subject: ADD: Git On Board (Huddie Ledbetter) From: Joe Offer Date: 05 Dec 09 - 02:14 PM Claude found the lyrics and sent them to me by personal message. Here's what I found at this site (click), which has lots of Leadbelly lyrics:
GIT ON BOARD
“Now sisters and brothers, you know when you get ready to go to Christ, you got to come to Jesus. Got to come to the mourner’s bench before you get ready to go to Christ. Let ‘em know what you bowing down there for. You get down on their knees, get down in your way, when you get down on your knees, brothers and sisters, you get down and pray. And when you get ready to go to Christ, you got to think about Christ. You can’t go to Christ without thinkin’ about Christ—,
“Now, ladies and gentlemen, if you want to see Christ and want to go by and talk with Jim a little while. If you don’t get to Jim, you wanna stop and talk with Thiera a little bit and (if) you can’t talk with Theira you got to stop and talk with Jim a little while. All of ‘em hangin’ on the road for Christ. When readin’ the bible say, Amen.”
