lyrics
Oh mother, will you come with me
Will you leave those ragged clothes behind
On the other side, a robe of white we have yet to find
Will you come and go with me
Oh father, will you come with me
Will you leave your guns and war behind
On the other side, a peace of mind we have yet to find
Will you come and go with me
I’m on my way to the kingdom land
On my way to Jordan’s shore
I won’t take nothing for the journey home
Will you come and go with me
Will you come and go with me
Oh children, will you come with me
Will you leave all your worrying behind
On the other side, quiet mind we have yet to find
Will you come and go with me
I’m on my way to the kingdom land
On my way to Jordan’s shore
I won’t take nothing for the journey home
Will you come and go with me
Will you come and go with me
I’m on my way to the kingdom land
On my way to Jordan’s shore
I won’t take nothing for the journey home
Will you come and go with me
Will you come and go with me
Recorded for a local Detroit label in the late ’70s before slipping into obscurity, this sweet soul gem from Rita Joyce still sparkles. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 21, 2021
