I was a Bpoor boy papa when Ayou decide you would make me Ewealthy
I had this Bsickness in my bones, I was Asure not far from home, you make me Ehealthy yeah yeah
I was reBjected, dejected, incorrect,A unprotected, defected Efrom my people
I was conBtriving, cliff diving, capsizing,A no freedom rising from theE deep hole
But You mBake me fAree, and IE must sing
You bBaptize mAe just doin' YEour thing
I had the Bfeeling all along that there was Asomethin' bearing strong over my Eshoulder
And it got Bcloser through the years, through aAbandonment and tears as I got Eolder, yes it did
Hitchhiking Bthrough the wilderness, and bearing Aall my consequence I was a Estranger
You picked me Bup on 66 and met me with your Aloving-kindness instead of Eanger
Now it?s a Bquarter ?til the clock strikes, and hopefully the shock might
AHit you like a rock fight or like a butcher?s block might
EQuick as lightning shock kite comes the key to lock tight
The door on which he knock right now until it?s not night
B Everybody walk tight rope until their chalk Awhite, hopes are wiped away by the wind
If the Edevil?s your friend you got a burden on your back, And some poison in your blood
It?s our Bburden to unpack, leave it behind in the Amud
Click clack goes the old smoke Estack and when it leaves
It ain?t never coming back, so you best be ready when the train comes steady
B It?s rollin? heavy ?round the bendsA, get on board my friend
E For the land of Lord cause the levee?s gonna break, in the end
