Jubilee Lyrics by Patti Smith

Jubilee Lyrics

    Oh glad day to celebrate ‘Neath the cloudless sky
    Air so sweet Water pure
    Fields ripe with rye Come one, come all
    Gather round Discard your Sunday shoes
    Come on now Oh my land
    Be a jubilee Come on girl
    Come on boy Be a jubilee

    Oh my land Oh my good
    People don’t be shy Weave the birth of harmony
    With children’s happy cries Hand in hand
    We’re dancing around In a freedom ring
    Come on now Oh my land
    Be a jubilee Come on girl
    Come on boy Be a jubilee

    We will never fade away Doves shall multiply
    Yet I see hawks circling the sky Scattering our glad day
    With debt and despair What good hour
    Will restore our troubled air? Come on people
    Gather round You know what to do
    Come on people Oh my land
    What be troubling Oh my land
    What be troubling What be troubling
    What be troubling you

    We are love and the future We stand in the midst of fury and weariness
    Who dreams of joy and radiance? Who dreams of war and sacrifice?
    Our sacred realms are being squeezed Curtailing civil liberties
    Recruit the dreams that sing to thee Let freedom ring

    Freedom ring Freedom ring
    Jubilee Oh my land
    Oh glad day Oh my land
    Hear our cry Freedom ring
    Oh glad day Oh my land
    Jubilee Jubilee
