[Chorus] 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 Well, I got a home on the other side 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 Well, I got a home on the other side [Break] Well, well Well, well, well, well [Verse 1] Ezekiel went down in the middle of a field He saw an angel working on a chariot wheel Wasn't so particular 'bout the chariot wheel Just wanted to see how a chariot feel [Chorus] 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 Well, I got a home on the other side [Break] Well, well Well [Verse 2] Ezekiel went down, and he got on board Chariot went a-bumping on down the road Zeke wasn't so particular 'bout the bumping of the road Just wanted to lay down his heavy load [Chorus] 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 Well, I got a home on the other side [Verse 3] Well, I got a Father in the promised land Ain't gonna stop till I shake His hand Rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord Calm and easy I got a home on the other side [Chorus] 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 Well, I got a home on the other side
