Dere's no hidin' place down dere, Dere's no hidin' place down dere, Oh I went to de rock to hide my face, De rock cried out, "No hidin' place," Dere's no hidin' place down dere. Oh de rock cried, "I'm burnin' too," Oh de rock cried, "I'm burnin' too," Oh de rock cried out I'm burnin' too, I want a go to hebben as well as you, Dere's no hidin' place down dere. Oh de sinner man he gambled an' fell, Oh de sinner man he gambled, an' fell, Oh de sinner man gambled, he gambled an' fell; He wanted to go to hebben, but he had to go to hell Dere's no hidin' place down dere. Oh de sinner man he gambled an' fell, Oh de sinner man he gambled, an' fell, Oh de sinner man gambled, he gambled an' fell; He wanted to go to hebben, but he had to go to hell Dere's no hidin' place down dere. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONG FOR THE FIRST OF THE MONTH by DOROTHY PARKER FUNERAL HYMN by LOUIS UNTERMEYER DAYBREAK by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS LACEDEMONIAN INSTRUCTION by WILLIAM BLAKE THE KING OF SPAIN by MAXWELL BODENHEIM ECHO AND SILENCE by SAMUEL EGERTON BRYDGES THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH: A DREAM OF PONCE DE LEON by HEZEKIAH BUTTERWORTH |
