Harriet Tubman's Gonna Carry Me Home

Written by Sid Griffin

Well I left my man on the other side

Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home

On the underground railroad I will ride

Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home

At night I ride on that Northern Star

Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home

If I gotta go to heaven then I'll go that far

Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home

They say that old Dred Scott

Will put his hooks on me

But they ain'y made the shackles

That'll keep me from wrestlin' free

Well I left my family on the other side

Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home

They ain't got their freedom but they got their pride

Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home

And there's more of them as there's more of me

Ain't nothing ever gonna stop us wwrestlin' free

If Joshua need a soldier let him come to me

As my life is but a shackle to this block of stone

When Jericho is falling let them call on me

Though I never had a past I got a will to be

They say that Frederick Douglass

Is an exception to their rules

Well I just read my Bible

And if they're right they're fools

Well I left my man on the other side

On the underground railroad I will ride

At night I ride on a Northern Star

If I gotta go to heaven then I'll go that far

Harriet Tubman's gonna carry me home
