FOLLOW THE DRINKING GOURD - THE FOLK SONG THAT LED TO FREEDOM!!!

FOLLOW THE DRINKING GOURD - This song is the story of how Peg Leg Joe would lead slaves to freedom by following the underground railroad directions hidden in the song. Kids love to learn and sing this song. One of my favorites to ever know and share!!! SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL!!!
This song is a traditional Folk Song. I wanted to cover the song and share it with all of you out there.
Follow the Drinking Gourd was collected by H. B. Parks, an entomologist and amateur folklorist, in the 1910s. Parks reported that Peg Leg Joe, an operative of the Underground Railroad, had passed as a laborer and spread the song to different plantations, giving directions for slaves to escape. The song was published by the Texas Folklore Society in 1928. (The cover spells the title "Foller de Drinkin' Gou'd.")[1]
This video was created to further the song and the story.
