Weeds grow in my garden
Days are hot and long
Ole sun make this clay harden
The work will make me strong

If I cry, it's not from sorrow
I'm alive
With the wonder of it all
I'm alive
But if I'm gone tomorrow, children
Keep your head up
Don't you look back
Take another step
Cross the River Jordan

When the evening gathers
Should the thunder call
The rain can sound like laughter
Falling on us all

If I cry, it's not from sorrow
I'm alive
With the wonder of it all
I'm alive
But if I'm gone tomorrow, children
Keep your head up
Don't you look back
Take another step
Cross the River Jordan
You'vе got to keep your head up
Don't you look back
Take another stеp
Cross the River Jordan
