Lyrics Roll Jordan Roll - TOPSY CHAPMAN, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Cast

Roll Jordan Roll

Went down to the river Jordan
Where John baptized three
Well I woke the devil in hell
Said «John ain’t baptized me!»
I said roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul’ll rise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan rolls
Well some say John was a baptist (Some say)
Some say John was a Jew (Hallelujah)
But I say John was a preacher of God
And my Bible says so too!
I said roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul’ll rise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan rolls
Hallelujah!
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul’ll rise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan rolls
Hallelujah!
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul’ll rise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan rolls
Everybody sing!
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul’ll rise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan rolls
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul’ll rise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan rolls
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul’ll rise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan rolls
