Go Down Emanuel Road

IRVING BURGIE

Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Well, the moon still in the sky

An' the sleep still in you eye

But when you hear me sing

You better make dem hammers ring

Wake up and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Well, you had a big time last night

And some of your heads are tight

But when I call this roll, please Lord

I don't want to miss a soul

So get up and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

When you break dem one by one

But man you just begun

'Cause today, I tell you something new

You gotta break dem two by two

So come on and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Well, I tell you man, if you good

You better chop dat stone like wood

Then tomorrow gonna be a big day

You get another shilling in you pay

'Cause from sun to sun you gotta stick

And don't tell me 'bout you sick

I want you to do your best

To night you better let them women rest

So you can get up and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone

Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy

Got to break that stone
