A Plantation Spiritual
sung by Daphne Zuniga as an incarcerated Princess Vespa in Spaceballs;
beautifully sung by Paul Robeson;

Chorus:
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen.
Nobody knows but Jesus.
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen.
Glory Hallelujah!

Chorus (1x)

Sometimes I'm up. Sometimes I'm down.
Oh, yes, Lord!
Sometimes I'm almost to the ground.
Oh, yes, Lord!

Chorus (1x)

Now you may think that I don't know,
Oh, yes, Lord,
But I've had my troubles here below.
Oh, yes, Lord!

Chorus (1x)

One day when I was walkin' along,
Oh, yes, Lord,
The sky opened up and love came down.
Oh, yes, Lord!

Chorus (1x)

What makes old Satan hate me so?
Oh, yes, Lord,
He had me once and had to let me go.
Oh, yes, Lord!

Chorus (1x)

I never shall forget that day,
Oh, yes, Lord,
When Jesus washed my sins away.
Oh, yes, Lord!
