Journey To Freedom
Moses is Coming:
Breathing Free:
Harriet Tubman
William Still
Field Hands
Fearful Choices!
Steal Away or Stay?
Safe House or Danger?
Follow the North Star to the Promised Land!
When the sun comes back and the first
quail calls,
Follow the drinking gourd.
For the old man is awaiting for to carry you
to freedom,
If you follow the drinking gourd
It wasn’t no subway and it wasn’t no train
But still they used the same kind of names
Like conductors and passengers, stations and tracks
And you knew it was safe when you saw a quilt out back
With a smoking chimney on top
This was a place where you could stop for the night
Until the morning came
And you had to get back on board the train
