[Chorus: Leadbelly with crowd]
Swing low, sweet chariot
A-comin' for to carry me home (sing it)
Swing low, sweet chariot
A-comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
A-comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
A-comin' for to carry me home

[Verse 2: Leadbelly with crowd]
I looked over yonder, far as I could see
A-comin' for to carry me home
It's a band of angels comin' after me home
A-comin' for to carry me home
Sing it now

[Chorus: Leadbelly with crowd]
Swing low, sweet chariot
A-comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
A-comin' for to carry me home
