North Mississippi Allstars Freedom Highway
(Roebuck "Pop" Staples)
Marching on the freedom highway
Marching each and every day
Marching on the freedom highway
Marching each and every day
I made up my mind, and I won’t turn around
I made up my mind, and I won’t turn around
There is just one thing that I can’t understand about friends
Why some folks think freedom is not designed for all men
There are so many people living their lives perplexed
Wondering in their minds what’s gonna happen next
Chorus
Found dead people in the forest(Alternate lyrics: You got your brothers and your sisters in the choir room)
Tallahatchie river and lakes
The whole wide world is wonderin’ what’s wrong with the United States
Yes we want peace if it can be found
We’re gonna stay freedom highway, we’re not gonna turn around
And do you (do you) do you think I voted for the right man
Who said we will over come
I march the freedom highway until the day is done
Chorus
I’m gonna keep on marching on the freedom highway
And I’m not gonna turn around
