Lyrics

Swing Low

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.

I’ve been lost, locked up and shot

I’m never gonna let them win, never going down again

My soul, colder than stone

And the dog, chewing a bone

I, I’ve been waiting

I, I’ve been waiting

Swing low

And I’m down, tied to the sound

Of the drum, pushing me up

Come on and show me where to go

Carry me home, swing low

I, I’ve been waiting

I, I’ve been waiting

Swing low

So let’s go

You mean, we’ve got to go

I'll follow you wherever you go

I'll follow you wherever you want to go

Wherever you want to go

I’ve been lost, locked up and shot

I’m never gonna let them win, never going down again

Come and show me where to go

Carry me home, swing low
