sunset four quartette – plantation days—part i lyrics
[intro: grace outlaw & sunset four]
dear old southland
i hear you calling me
[?]
[segue: grace outlaw]
listen, dear friends, and i shall tell
a story of the origins of the spiritual
out in the cotton fields, [?]
this song they sang to drive their tears away
[by and by: sunset four]
o by and by
by and by
i’m going to lay down this heavy load
[segue: grace outlaw]
the day’s work over, they start towards home
the little log cabin for a hot corn pone
then a song would break forth from a cabin across the way
you listen, and you hear someone saying
[n0body knows the trouble i see: sunset four]
n0body knows the trouble i see
n0body knows my sorrow
n0body knows the trouble i see
glory, hallelujah
[segue: grace outlaw]
then as the sun went slowly down
they all gathered round the camp meeting ground
some would sing while others would pray
for each express himself in a different way
[walk in jerusalem just like john: sunset four]
i want to be ready
i want to be ready
i want to be ready
to walk in jerusalem
just like john
