Face The Promise Lyrics
I've been down in the delta
Workin' these fields
Breakin' my back
I need a better deal
So long Mississippi, so long Alabam'
I want to face the promise
Of the promised land
I've got fevered dreams, mighty plans
I need a black top road
I need a wheel in my hands
So long Arizona, so long desert sands
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
I'm tired of this river
These nothin' nights
I'm small towned out
I need city lights
So long Allegany, so long Olean
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
I need a world of changes
I need a brand new space
I need an El Dorado
That's got to be someplace
There's a line inside
I think I've crossed
You better watch out now
I'm gonna be my own boss
So long Massachusetts, so long Framingham
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
So long North Dakota
You must understand
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
Workin' these fields
Breakin' my back
I need a better deal
So long Mississippi, so long Alabam'
I want to face the promise
Of the promised land
I need a black top road
I need a wheel in my hands
So long Arizona, so long desert sands
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
These nothin' nights
I'm small towned out
I need city lights
So long Allegany, so long Olean
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
I need a brand new space
I need an El Dorado
That's got to be someplace
I think I've crossed
You better watch out now
I'm gonna be my own boss
So long Massachusetts, so long Framingham
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
You must understand
I need to face the promise
Of the promised land
