Alan LomaxNo More, My Lawd Lyrics
[Chorus]
No more, my Lord
No more, my Lord
Lord I'll never turn back
No more
[Verse 1]
I found, in Him
A resting place
And He have made
Me glad
[Chorus]
No more, my Lord
No more, my Lord
Lord I'll never turn back
No more
[Verse 2]
Jesus, the Man
I am looking for
Can you tell me where
He's gone?
[Verse 3]
Go down, go down
Among flower yard
And perhaps you may find
Find Him there

What has Lomax said about this song?
Lomax wrote,
The axe gang scatters out through the bottom woods, each man to a tree. Jimpson begins a worksong spiritual that has been sung at all sorts of tasks since the days of slavery. At one point a chip strikes the microphone.
