Lyrics of Roll Jordan Roll by Topsy Chapman,Chiwetel Ejiofor
Went down to the river Jordan,
Where John baptised three
Well I walked to the devil in hell
Sayin John ain′t baptise me
I say;
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll
Well some say John was a baptist
Some say John was a Jew
But I say John was a preacher of God
And my bible says so too
I say;
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll
Alleluja!
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll
(Everybody says)
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
Roll, Jordan, roll
My soul arise in heaven, Lord
For the year when Jordan roll
Writer(s): John Davis, Nicholas Britell, Alan Lomax
