Mine eyes have seen the beauty of a land bright and fair My soul looked out and wondered, can we make the journey there But I've lost my sight and I have to be led Well I mean to work for justice till I'm dead
Sundown town, sundown town Don't let 'em catch you, Buddy, when the sun goin' down There won't be no more friends around Don't let 'em catch you, Buddy, when the sun goin' down
