Sit Down

Harry Belafonte


Oh sit down, please sit down

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

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

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
