I’ve
been traveling all this day
Ride
on Moses
To
hear the good folks sing and pray
Want
to go home in the morning
They
pray’d so long I couldn’t wait
Ride
on Moses
I
knew the Lord would walk that way
Want
to go home in the morning
Then ride on, ride on,
Ride on, Moses
Ride on, King Emmanuel,
Want to go home in the morning
When
I got there, Satan was there
Ride
on Moses
I’m
goin’ to take the golden car
Want
to go home in the morning
I
lay my old sins on the shelf
Ride
on Moses
And
stand right up and shake myself
Want
to go home in the morning
