LYRICS

Come on, people
come on, children
come on down to the glory river

gonna wash you up

and wash you down

gonna lay the devil down,

Gonna lay that devil down

Come on, people

come on, children

there's a king at the glory river

and the precious king

he loved the people to sing

babes in the blinkin' sun

sang we shall overcome!

Come on, people, sons, and mothers

Keep the dream

of the two young brothers

gonna take the dream

and ride the dove

we could build the dream with love

I got fury in my soul

fury's gonna take me to the

glory goal

in my mind I can't study war

no more

save the people

save the children

save the country
