John Brown’s Body (Glory, glory, hallelujah)

1) John Brown's Body lies amouldering in the grave,
John Brown's Body lies amouldering in the grave,
John Brown's Body lies amouldering in the grave,
but his soul goes maching on

Ref.: Glory! Glory! Halleluja!
Glory! Glory! Halleluja!
Glory! Glory! Halleluja!
but his soul goes marching on.

2) He captured Harper’s Ferry with his nineteen men so true;
he frightened old Virginia ’til she trembled through and through.
They hanged him for traitor, themselves the traitor’s crew,
but his soul goes marching on.

3) The stars above in heaven are a-lookin’ kindly down,
the stars above in heaven are a-lookin’ kindly down,
the stars above in heaven are a-lookin’ kindly down,
on the grave of old John Brown.

4) He’s gone to bea soldier in the army of the Lord,
he’s gone to be a soldier in the army of the Lord,
he’s gone to be a soldier in the army of the Lord,
but his soul goes marching on.
