hutchinson family singers - get off the track lyrics
ho! the car emanc+p+tion
rides majestic thro’ our nation
bearing on its train the story
liberty! a nation’s glory
roll it along, thro’ the nation
freedom’s car, emanc+p+tion!
men of various predilections
frightened, run in all directions;
merchants, editors, physicians
lawyers, priests, and politicians
get out of the way! every station!
clear the track of ‘manc+p+tion!
ho! the car, emanc+p+tion
rides majestic thro’ our nation
bearing on its train, the story
liberty! a nation’s glory
roll it along! roll it along!
roll it along! thro’ the nation
freedom’s car, emanc+p+tion
roll it along! roll it along!
roll it along! thro’ the nation
freedom’s car, emanc+p+tion
first of all the train, and greater
speeds the dauntless liberator
onward cheered amid hosannas
and the waving of free banners
roll it along! roll it along!
roll it along! spread your banners
whilе the people shout hosannas
mеn of various predilections
frightened, run in all directions;
merchants, editors, physicians
lawyers, priests and politicians
get out of the way! get out of the way!
get out of the way! every station
clear the track of ‘manc+p+tion
let the ministers and churches
leave behind sectarian lurches;
jump on board the car of freedom
ere it be too late to need them
sound the alarm! sound the alarm!
sound the alarm! pulpit’s thunder!
ere too late, you see your blunder
politicians gazed, astounded
when, at first our bell resounded:
freight trains are coming, tell these foxes
with our votes and ballot boxes
jump for your lives! jump for your lives!
jump for your lives! politicians
from your dangerous false positions
rail roads to emanc+p+tion
cannot rest on clay foundation
and the tracks of ‘the magician’
are but rail roads to perdition
pull up the rails! pull up the rails!
pull up the rails! emanc+p+tion
cannot rest on such foundation
all true friends of emanc+p+tion
haste to freedom’s rail road station;
quick into the cars get seated
all is ready, and completed
put on the steam! put on the steam!
put on the steam! all are crying
and the liberty flags are flying
now, again the bell is tolling
soon you’ll see the car wheels rolling;
hinder not their destination
chartered for emanc+p+tion
wood up the fire! wood up the fire!
wood up the fire! keep it flashing
while the train goes onward dashing
hear the mighty car wheels humming!
now look out! the engine’s coming!
church and statesmen! hear the thunder!
clear the track! or you’ll fall under
get off the track! get off the track!
get off the track! all are singing
while the liberty bell is ringing
on triumphant, see them bearing
through sectarian rubbish tearing;
th’ bell and whistle and the steaming
startles thousands from their dreaming
look out for the cars! look out for the cars!
look out for the cars! while the bell rings
ere the sound your funeral knell rings
see the people run to meet us;
at the depots thousands greet us;
all take seats with exultation
in the car, emanc+p+tion
huzza! huzza! huzza! huzza!
huzza! huzza! emanc+p+tion
soon will bless our happy nation
huzza! huzza!! huzza!!
