Go down Moses, way down in Egypt land. Tell old Pharaoh he's got to let my people go. Who's that man all dressed in white? Let my people go It looks like the leader of the Israelites Let my people go Oh who's that man all dressed in red Let my people go It looks like the band that Moses led Let my people go I'm saying go down, way down, way down in Egypt land Won't you tell Pharaoh you gotta let my people go Go down, way down. Tell old Pharaoh You gotta let my people go. When Israel was in Egypt land Let my people go Oh breath so hot they couldn't stand Let my people go Oh thank the Lord old Moses says Let my people go If not I'll smite your first born dead Let my people go Variations
