Letra da Música Go Down, Moses de Natalie Merchant

Moving on, moving on
Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?
Just hold it back and keep moving on

Pushing on, pushing on
Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?
But it's so hard to keep pushing on

I'm moving on, moving on
Isn't that what everybody tells me I gotta do?
But it's so hard moving on without you

Every morning waking in a fever wet and shaking
My heart inside me pounding, muddy water all around me
Cold, shocked and speechless, can't anybody reach us
And why, oh God, why?

Go down, go down, moses
Go down to the city of new orleans
Go part the muddy water
Let your people cross over

Go down!

I'm moving on, moving on
That's what I'm trying to do
Just holding back and moving on

Keeping on, keeping on
That's what I'm trying so hard to do
But it's so hard keeping on without you

Gone and lost my patience with this hopeless situation
Yeah, I'm alive, I'm a lonely sole survivor
Spared me for some reason so I'm picking up the pieces
But why? Oh God, why?

Go down, go down, moses
Go down to the city of new orleans
Go part the muddy water
Let your people cross over

Go down!
