Lyrics Roll Jord'n Roll - Shirley Verrett

Roll Jord'n Roll

Went down to the river Jord’n'
Where John baptized three
Well I want the devil in hell
Said John didn’t baptized me
I say Roll Jord’n' Roll
Roll Jord’n roll
My soul a rise in heaven lord
For the year when Jord’n roll
Well some say John was a Baptist
Some say John was a Jew
Well I say John was a preacher called
And my bible says so too
I said Roll Jord’n roll
Roll Jord’n roll
