Lyrics Go Down, Moses - Pete Seeger

Oh when Israel was in Egypt land
Let my people go
Oppressed so hard they could not stand
Let my people go

Go down Moses, way down in Egypt land
Tell Pharaoh
Let my people go

Thus said the Lord, bold Moses said
"Let my people go,
If not I'll strike your firstborn dead"
Let my people go

Go down, Moses
Way down in Egypt land
Tell Pharaoh
Let my people go

Lord told Moses what to do
Let my people go
Let those Hebrew children through
Let my people go

Go down, Moses
Way down in Egypt land
Tell Pharaoh
Let my people go
