Sit Down

(album: Streets I Have Walked - 1963)

(Oh sit down, please sit down
Sit down, hey sit down
Mom, sit down, sit down there
Please sit down
Would you please just sit down
Please sit down)

Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Because I just got to heaven, I will look around

Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Because I just got to heaven, I will look around

Who's that yonder dressed in white
Yes, Lord
Looks like the children of the Israelites
Yes, yes, yes my Lord

Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Because I just got to heaven, I will look around

Who's that yonder dressed in blue
A well it looks like my brother he's a coming thru
Who's that yonder dressed in black
That's my preacher and that hypocrite's a turning back

Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Because I just got to heaven, I will look around

Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, mmm I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Because I just got to heaven, I will look around

Why don't you sit down, oh I can't sit down
Why don't you sit down, oh I won't sit down
Why don't you sit down, I said I'll never sit down
Because I just got to heaven, I will look around
I just got to heaven, I will look around
I just got to heaven, I will look around
