Roll Jordan Roll


Went down to the river Jordan,
Where John baptised three
When I walked the devil in hell,
said John ain't baptised me...
I said roll, Jordan roll,
Roll, Jordan roll,
My soul ought to rise in heaven, Lord,
For the year when Jordan rolls
Well some say John was a baptist,
Some say John was a Jew,
But I say John was a preacher
my bible says so too
I said roll, Jordan roll,
Roll, Jordan roll,
My soul ought to rise in heaven, Lord,
For the year when Jordan rolls
Roll, Jordan roll,
Roll, Jordan roll,
My soul ought to rise in heaven, Lord,
For the year when Jordan rolls
Roll, Jordan roll,
Roll, Jordan roll,
My soul ought to rise in heaven, Lord,
For the year when Jordan rolls
Roll, Jordan roll,
Roll, Jordan roll,
My soul ought to rise in heaven, Lord,
For the year when Jordan rolls
Roll, Jordan roll,
Roll, Jordan roll,
My soul ought to rise in heaven, Lord,
For the year when Jordan rolls
Roll, Jordan roll,
Roll, Jordan roll,
My soul ought to rise in heaven, Lord,
For the year when Jordan rolls

12 Years a Slave quotes

  • Brown: Circus too constricting a word to describe the talented and merry band with which we travel. It is a spectacle unlike most have ever witnessed. Creatures from the darkest Africa as yet unseen by civilized man. Acrobats from the Orient able to contort themselves in the most confounding manners.

    Hamilton: And I myself in aide of Mr. Brown; an internationally renowned practitioner in the art of prestidigitation.

  • Hamilton: I'm afraid that Brown and I haven't brought you much luck. But rough waters bring smooth sailing. Eventually they do.

    Solomon Northup: So... so sorry...

    Hamilton: Shhh. We won't hear it. We won't.

    Brown: Let him sleep.

    Hamilton: Hmm. A good night's sleep. And tomorrow... tomorrow you will feel as well and refreshed as though the earth were new again.

    Brown: Hamilton! Nothing more we can do for him.

    Hamilton: Such is the pity.
