Celebration Day (Remastered)

Her face is cracked from smilin'
All the tears that she's been hindin'
And she wonders pretty soon
Everybody's gonna know
And her voice is sore from shoutin'
To the winners who are losin'
And she wonders what the deuce
I feel so happy, I don't know
My my my, I'm so happy
I'm gonna join the band
And we're gonna sing and dance in celebration
Oh we're in the promised land
She'll give herself a new way
To remember all she knew me
She wonders what it's all about
Till they break down her door
Her name is Brown or White or Black
You know her very well
You hear her cries of mercy
It's like a silver bell
My my, I'm so happy
I'm gonna join the band
And we're gonna dance and sing in the celebration
Oh we're in the promised land
If you should lose this nation
And a new destination
But the price you pay to go there
is at least all that and more
If you walk you're gonna get there
Though it takes a little longer
And when you see it in the distance
You will raise your hands and moan
Oh yeah, you will moan, you will moan
Hear me, you will moan
