We Shall Be Free

(专辑： Woody Guthrie Sings Folk Songs - 1962)

In the morning you shall be free
'Fore day you shall be free
Hear me say you shall be free
When the good Lord sets you free

I was down in the hen house other night
Awful dark, I didn't have no light
I reached for a chicken, I got me a goose
A man come out, I had to turn him loose

I jumped a gully you shall be free
I jumped a rose bush you shall be free
[?] you shall be free
When the good Lord sets you free

Preacher an' a rooster had a terr'ble fight
Preacher knocked the rooster clean out o' sight
Preacher told the rooster that'll be all right
Meet ya at the hen house tomorrow night

[?] you shall be free
In the morning you shall be free
You know, rooster, you shall be free
When the good Lord sets you free

I's down in the hen house on my knees
I thought I heard a chicken sneeze
Only a rooster saying his prayers
Thanking his God for the hens upstairs

Here's the preacher you shall be free
He's a-singing you shall be free
Taking up c'llection you shall be free
When the good Lord sets you free

Oh, some folks says times is hard
Preacher says put your trust in God
Matter no diff'rence, don't you see
A hog can't run too fast for me

Getting that [?] you shall be free
Getting that hogeye you shall be free
Eating up chitt'lin's you shall be free
When the good Lord sets you free

As some people say, a preacher won't steal
I caught two down in my corn fiel'
One had a bushel, other had a peck
Other'n had a roasting ear down his neck

[?] you shall be free
Getting roasting ears you shall be free
Getting dried corn you shall be free
When the good Lord sets you free

Oh, the gun said boom an' the hog said
[?] jumped on 'er with all o' his will
[?] how that hog gets [?]

[?] you shall be free
I don't care you shall be free
Forget about [?] you shall be free
When the good Lord sets you free
