Daylight is comin' (daylight is comin')
Daylight's callin' me
Ain't got much of nothin'
Except grace by degrees
Yeah, I'm so glad to be free (I'm so glad to be free)
Daylight's a-comin'
Daylight's callin me (it's callin' me)
That girl took my lovin' (she took my lovin')
And never gave none back to me
Yeah, everybody, everybody, everybody wanna be free
(Everybody wants to be free)
All of God's creatures ought to be free
Daylight's a comin'
Daylight's callin' me (daylight's callin' me)
Sunrise comin' up, baby
To burn the dirt right off of me
Come on now, people, take my blindness, make me see
Sunrise is comin' (sunrise is comin')
Daylight's callin' me (daylight is callin' me)
I work eleven to eleven
Midnight shift and half of the mornin'
All of God's children got to have their freedom
Everybody, everybody, everybody gotta be free
Sunrise is comin', daylight's callin' me (daylight is callin' me)
Will you tell me if this is heaven? (oh, will you tell me if this is heaven?)
'Cause it's the only one I see
Daylight is comin', daylight is callin' me
Found the doorway to eden and lost myself in a concrete city
Yeah, everybody's got to be free (everybody's got to be free)
Daylight is comin' (daylight is comin')
Daylight is callin' me (daylight is callin' me)
And everybody got to be free (everybody got to be free)
Yeah, everybody got to be free
