Roll Jordan Roll (feat. Chiwetel Ejiofor)

12 Years A Slave Soundtrack / Topsy Chapman

Went down to the River Jordan
Where John baptized three
Well I woke the devil in hell
Saying John ain't baptize me

I say roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll

Well, some say John was a Baptist
Some say John was a Jew
But I say John was a preacher of God
And my Bible says so too

I say roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll

Hallelujah!
