Forty More Miles to Go / Rouster’s Chant Lyrics

[MEN & WOMEN]
Lord ain't I prayed
Loud enough to hear?
How long, how long
Feet go on a-walkin'
'Til that Promised Land be near?

Hammer weighin' down my back
Sorrow weighin' down my soul
Forty more miles on the railroad track
Always forty more miles to go

[MAN]
How many miles my two feet countin'?

[ROUSTER, spoken]
Covington and Louisville

[MAN]
How many tracks my two hands lay?

[ROUSTER, spoken]
Owensboro

[MAN]
How many bridges?
How many tunnels?

[ROUSTER, spoken]
Evansville, Indiana

[MAN]
'Fore my blood run cold

[ROUSTER, spoken]
Paducah

[MAN]
And my hair

[ROUSTER, spoken]
Kentucky

[MAN]
Turn gray?

[ROUSTER, spoken]
Cairo, Illinois
