Swing Down Chariot
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why don't you swing down (sweet) chariot
Stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot
Stop and let me ride
Rock me Lord, rock me Lord
Calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side
Swing, swing, swing, swing, swing, swing
Well, well, well Ezekiel went down in the middle of a field
He saw and angel workin' on a chariot wheel
He wasn't so particular 'bout the chariot wheel
He just wanted to see how a chariot feel
Swing, swing, swing, swing, swing, swing
Well, well, well Ezekiel wend down and he got on board
Chariot went a bumpin' up and down the road
Zeke wasn't so particular 'bout the bumpin' of that road
He just wanted to lay down his heavy load
