We Shall Be Free Lyrics - Woody Guthrie

In the mornin' you shall be free 

'fore day you shall be free hear me say 

You shall be free when the good lord sets you free 

 

I was down in the hen house other night awful dark 

I didn't have no light I reached for a chicken 

I got me a goose a man come out, I had to turn him loose 

 

I jumped a gully you shall be free I jumped a rose bush you shall be free 

You shall be free when the good lord sets you free 

 

Vpreacher an' a rooster had a terrible fight 

Preacher knocked the rooster clean out o' sight 

Preacher told the rooster that'll be all right 

Meet ya at the hen house tomorrow night 

 

You shall be free in the mornin' 

You shall be free you know, rooster 

You shall be free when the good lord sets you free

I's down in the hen house on my knees 

I thought I heard a chicken sneeze 

Only a rooster sayin' his prayers 

Thankin' his god for the hens upstairs 

 

Here's the preacher you shall be free 

He's a-singin' you shall be free 

Takin' up c'llection you shall be free 

When the good lord sets you free 

 

Oh, some folks says times is hard 

Preacher says put your trust in god matter no difference 

Don't you see a hog can't run too fast for me 

 

Gettin' that 

You shall be free 

Gettin' that hogeye you shall be free 

Eatin' up chitt'lin's you shall be free 

When the good lord sets you free

As some people say, a preacher won't steal 

I caught two down in my corn fiel' 

One had a bushel, other had a peck 

Other'n had a roastin' ear down his neck 

 

You shall be free gettin' roastin' ears 

You shall be free gettin' dried corn 

You shall be free when the good lord sets you free 

 

Oh the gun said boom an' the hog said 

Jumped on 'er with all o' his will 

How that hog gets 

 

You shall be free I don't care you shall be free forget about 

You shall be free when the good lord sets you free
