Jubilee Lyrics

Elizabeth Mitchell Jubilee

It’s all out on the old railroad,
It’s all out on the sea,
All out on the old railroad
As far as I can see

Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn Jubilee.
Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn Jubilee.

Hardest work I ever did,
Was working on the farm,
Easiest work I ever did
Swing my true love’s arm.

Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn Jubilee.
Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn Jubilee.

If I had a needle and thread

As fine as I could sew

I’d sew my true love to my side
And down this creek I’d go.

If I had no horse to ride
I’d be found a-crawlin’
Up and down this rocky road
Lookin’ for my darlin’.

Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn Jubilee.
Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn Jubilee.
