Some people say a man is made outa mud
A poor man's made outa muscle 'n blood...
Muscle an' blood an' skin an' bone
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons an' whaddya get?
Another day older an' deeper in debt
Saint Peter doncha call me 'cause I can't go

Some people say a man is made out of mud
A poor mans made out of muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bone
A mind that's weak and the back that's strong
You load sixteen ton and what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Oh brother don't you call me cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

When you come to the end of a perfect day
And you sit alone with your thought
While the chimes ring out with a carol gay
For the joy that the day has brought
Do you think what the end of a perfect day
Can mean to a tired heart
When the sun goes down with a flaming ray
And the dear friends have to part?

Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
And the walls come tumbling down

God knows that
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho

Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
And the walls come tumbling down

God knows that
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho

Sweetest little fellow, everybody knows
Don't know what to call him but he's mighty like a rose
Lookin' at his mammy with eyes so shiny blue
Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you

When he's there sleepin' in his little place
Think I see angels lookin' through the lace
When the dark and fallin', when the shadows creep

Oh, my baby, my curly headed baby
I’ll sing you fast asleep
And love you as I sing hmm hmm
Oh my baby, my curly headed baby
Just tuck your head my little bird
Beneath its mothers wing hmm hmm
So lula lula lulla lulla bye bye
Do you want the stars to play with

There's an ol' man called the Mississippi,
That's the ol' man I don't like to be,
What does he care if de world's got troubles?
What does he care if de land ain't free?
Ol' Man River,
Dat Ol' Man River,
He mus' know sumpin',
But don' say nothin';

You'll keep going your way
I'll keep going my way
River stay away from my door

I just got a cabin
You don't need my cabin
River stay away from my door

Moonlight, on cloudy, cloudy shores
By my door
Music I've often heard before
In all my heart
Years have flicked away and left me longing
For the dream of happiness I'll see no more
Old rockin' chair's got me, cane by my side
Fetch me that gin, son, 'fore I tan your hide

I met my brother the other day,
I gave him my right hand,
And just as soon as ever my back was turned,
He scandalized my name.

Now do you call that a brother? No, no.
You call that a brother? No, no.
Call that a brother? No, no.

I do not know why oft ’round me
My hopes all shattered seem to be;
God’s perfect plan I cannot see,
But some day I’ll understand.

Refrain:
Some day He’ll make it plain to me,
Some day when I His face shall see;

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long ways from home
A long ways from home

Sometimes I feel like freedom is near
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near

Viva la Quince Brigada,
rumba la rumba la rumba la.
Viva la Quince Brigada,
rumba la rumba la rumba la
que se ha cubierto de gloria,
¡Ay Manuela! ¡Ay Manuela!
que se ha cubierto de gloria,
¡Ay Manuela! ¡Ay Manuela!

Never say that you have reached the very end
When leaden skies a bitter future may portend.
For sure the hour for which we yearn will yet arrive
And our marching steps will thunder - we survive!

Not lead, but blood, inscribed this bitter song we sing,
It’s not a caroling of birds upon the wing.
But ’twas a people midst the crashing fires of hell,
