1
The river is deep and the road is long
2
Daylight comes and I want to go home
3
Awoke this morning to find my people's tongues were tied
4
(Amen)
5
And in my dreams they were given books to poison their minds
6
(Amen)
7
The river is deep and the mountain high
8
How long before the other side
9
We are their mortar, their building bricks and their clay
10
(Amen)
11
Their gold teeth mirror both our joys and our pain
12
(Amen)
13
The river is deep and the ocean wide
14
Who will show us how to read the signs
15
The earth is our mother she taught us to embrace the light
16
(Amen)
17
Now the Lord is master She suffers an eternal night
18
(Amen)
19
I say
20
You blocked up my ears
21
You plucked out my eyes
22
You cut out my tongue
23
You fed me with lies, oh Lord
24
Oh Lord
25
Oh Lord
26
Oh Lord
