On the Way Lord

(Juanita Southern)



(Lord, they're on their way, on their way.)



Saw a man, an angry man

Killed his brother with his own hands

Brother laid on the ground

Sinner man, you'd better kneel down.



He's on his way Lord, on his way

On his way Lord, on his way

He's on his way Lord, on his way

Oh, oh Lord, he's on his way (on his way.)



So a girl, a pretty girl

Disgusted with her mixed up world

And over those tranquillities

Forever ends reality.



She's on her way Lord, on her way

On her way Lord, on her way

SHe's on her way Lord, on her way

Oh, oh Lord, she's on her way (on her way.)



Two young boys, black and white

Each one thinks his world is right

Fighting for color of skin

They'll never know which one will win.



They're on their way Lord, on their way

On their way Lord, on their way

They're on their way Lord, on their way

Oh, oh Lord, they're on their way (on their way.)



(Lord they're on their way, on their way...)
