Ride On Red, Ride On |
| Well I left my home in Vicksburg and startet travelling north |
| Made it to New Orleans as the bus was taking off |
| The citizens' committee was giving away the fare |
| Saying, «If you don’t like the south, boy, just ride on outta here» |
| Ride on, ride on Red, ride on Gonna ride off to my freedom |
| And make those Northern States my home. |
| We made it into Shreveport, where we were supposed to eat |
| I got myself a sandwich and ate it on the street |
| Ride on, Louisianna Red, ride on Gonna ride on to your freedom |
| And make those Northern States your home. |
| We made it into Little Rock, we made another state |
| Took the whole of the U.S. army to make one school integrate |
| Ride on, ride on Red, ride on Gonna ride on to your freedom |
| And make those Northern States your home. |
| Well I live here in New York and I am doing fine |
| Have myself a ball above the Mason-Dixon line |
| Ride on, ride on Red, ride on Gonna ride on to my freedom |
| And make those Northern States my home. |
