[Spoken Intro]
The song of the Underground Railroad
It told the slaves in their own language
How to travel out of bondage
It told them when to go
What rivers to follow
What mountains to pass over
What turnings to make, who to ask for
And always to keep their eyes to the north
Where freedom was under the sign of the Drinkin' Gourd
That was the Big Dipper
And so, their song was called "Follow the Drinkin' Gourd"

[Intro]
Follow, follow, follow

[Chorus]
Follow the drinkin' gourd
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is a-waitin' for to carry you to freedom
Follow the drinkin' gourd

[Verse 1]
When the sun comes back, and the first quail calls
Follow the drinkin' gourd
For the old man is a-waitin' for to carry you to freedom
Just follow the drinkin' gourd
