Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
|
Well, the moon still in the sky
|
An' the sleep still in you eye
|
But when you hear me sing
|
You better make dem hammers ring
|
|
Wake up and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
|
Well, you had a big time last night
|
And some of your heads are tight
|
But when I call this roll, please Lord
|
I don't want to miss a soul
|
|
So get up and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
|
When you break dem one by one
|
But man you just begun
|
'Cause today, I tell you something new
|
You gotta break dem two by two
|
|
So come on and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
|
Well, I tell you man, if you good
|
You better chop dat stone like wood
|
Then tomorrow gonna be a big day
|
You get another shilling in you pay
|
|
'Cause from sun to sun you gotta stick
|
And don't tell me 'bout you sick
|
I want you to do your best
|
To night you better let them women rest
|
|
So you can get up and go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
Go down Emanuel Road, man and boy
|
Got to break that stone
|
