Go Down Emanuel Road |
| 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 |
| An' 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 |
