Hey, hey, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Hey, ah yeah
Oh, oh
Yeah, yeah
Unruffled, Unruffled is the name we give
Hey, hey, hey
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna reach the promised land
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna shake my father's hand
Four hundred years or more, the Israelites been slaving
But Pharaoh is for sure a very ungrateful king
Through all the sweat and tears, and all the blood we shed
They never seem to care and now it's best we fled
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna see the promised land
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna shake my father's hand
Pharaoh and his men are coming, over the hills as I do
I know, I hear the chariots, they are clinking
With their horses as they go, oh, oh, oh, oh
You promised there would be redemption of us of old
As we show the sign and still they never be told
Not to my delight, they broke the old Jordan
Cast away the waters and set the people free
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna reach the promised land
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna shake my father's hand
Though you plagued them with the frogs
And turned their water into blood
And leprosy came down and still they never budged
And you wiped out their first born and it was dust to dust from dawn
And still they play stiff-necked with all the miracles performed
Roll away
Roll away
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna reach the promised land
Roll away Jordan, roll away Jordan
Roll away Jordan, I wanna shake my father's hand
Roll away
Roll away
Roll away, roll away from me
Set the captives free, yeah
Roll away
We're heading to the Red Sea and we must be free, yeah
