Chaka Kahn Roll Me Through The Rushes Lyrics

Roll Me Through The Rushes Lyrics

Roll me through the rushes like Moses



Roll me through the rushes just like Moses







Roll me through the rushes like Moses



Guide me to the new woman who waits



Current, leave me on the banks



By the cottage



Wher we will dine with silver cups



And golden plates







Roll me through the rushes like Moses



Roll me through the rushes just like Moses







I've prepared for my last journey



You know I've worked all my life



To make this basket strong



But a woman alone on a river



She can't stay in the water too long







I've been chilled, I've lost my will



And I've stayed away from rivers



Much too long



I really must stay in this dirty dirty city



Till I found out that my strength was gone







Roll me through the rushes like Moses



Roll me through the rushes just like Moses



Just like Moses







Make my journey, make it short in space



Let me lose this hardness that I got now, Lord



Water, wash away all traces of hate



I will do what you say



If you just show me how, river







Roll me through the rushes like Moses



Roll me through the rushes just like Moses



Roll me through the rushes like Moses



Roll me through the rushes



Just like Moses on the Nile







River, river (sail)



River, river (sail)



River, river (sail)



River, river (sail)
