Hear my song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3hQNMr0A48
And/or read:
Well I walked out; I walked out to Pisgah mountain
Well ole Martin Luther King; he’d been up to the mountaintop
and I wanted to see what he had seen.
And ole Moses—he’d been up to the mountaintop
and I wanted to see what he had seen.
When I reached the top of Pisgah mountain
what did I see? I saw a promised land
just waitin’ for me, and waitin’ for all of ye.
Well I walked down from the mountain and into the town
Well ole Martin Luther King—he’d been to see the big man
and I wanted to see what he had seen.
And ole Moses—he’d been to see the Pharoah.
Yeah, he’d been up there. . . . and I wanted to see what he had seen.
The promised land is what you make it to be!
Struggle . . . struggle to unwind your unconstant state of mind.
Just take a walk up the mountain, my friend
and you will see.
What goes on down in that dirty old town
is bound to be.
You can make up your mind, my friend
and you can make it up good.
Are you looking for the promised land?
Or are you dying, are you dying, are you dying in a wasteland?
‘cause I may be asking you now; I may be asking you:
But someday, Lord, yeah, He’s gonna ask you too
And what you gonna say, what you gonna say
when my Lord
comes on that day?
