Just give me a cool drink of water 'fore I diiie -- Where love is a scream of anguish -- Just before the world ends -- Oh pray my wings are gonna fit me well -- And still I rise -- Touch me, life, not softly -- Traveling -- And still I rise -- Shaker, why don't you sing? -- I shall not be moved -- On the pulse of morning -- Celebrations -- A brave and startling truth -- Amazing peace -- Mother : a cradle to hold me -- Amazement awaits -- His day is done. |
