Lyrics:
Ain’t gonna let nobody turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let nobody turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
Ain’t gonna let segregation turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let segregation turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
Ain’t gonna let no jail house turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let no jail house turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
Ain’t gonna let no nervous Nellie turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let no nervous Nellie turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
Ain’t gonna let Chief Pritchett turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let Chief Pritchett turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
Ain’t gonna let Mayor Kelley turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let Mayor Kelley turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
Ain't gonna let no Uncle Tom turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let no Uncle Tom turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
Ain't gonna let nobody turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around.
Ain’t gonna let nobody turn me around,
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking,
Marchin’ up to Freedom Land.
