Peter, Paul and Mary

Peter, Paul and Mary were a US folk-singing trio whose nearly 50-year career began with their rise to become a paradigm for 1960s folk music. The trio was composed of Peter Yarrow, Paul Stookey and Mary Travers. After the death of Mary Travers in 2009, Yarrow and Stookey continued to perform as a duo under their individual names. more »

Go tell it on the mountain, over the hill and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain, to let my people go

Who's that yonder dressed in red, let my people go
Must be the children that Moses led, let my people go
Who's that yonder dressed in red
Must be the children that Moses led
Go tell it on the mountain, to let my people go

Go tell it on the mountain, over the hill and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain, to let my people go

Who's that yonder dressed in white, let my people go
Must be the children of the Israelite, let my people go
Who's that yonder dressed in white
Must be the children of the Israelite
Go tell it on the mountain, to let my people go

Go tell it on the mountain, over the hill and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain, to let my people go

Who's that yonder dressed in black, let my people go
Must be the hypocrites turnin' back, let my people go
Who's that yonder dressed in black
Must be the hypocrites turnin' back

Go tell it on the mountain to let my people go
Tell it on the mountain, over the hill and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain to let my people go
