Lyrics Cotton Tail - Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington

Cotton Tail

When Israel was in Egypt's land
Let my people go.
Oppressed so hard they could not stand
Let my people go.

The Lord said
Go down Moses way down in Egypt's land
Tell old Pharaoh to let my people go.

So Moses went to Egypt's land
Let my people go.
To make old Pharaoh understand
Let my people go.

The Lord said

Go down Moses way down in Egypt's land
Tell old Pharaoh to let my people go.

Thus spoke the Lord bold Moses said
"Let my people go".
If not I'll strike your first born dead
"Let my people go".

The Lord said
Go down Moses way down in Egypt's land
Tell old Pharaoh to let my people go.

Go down Moses way down in Egypt's land
Tell old Pharaoh to let my people go
