Livin in the Promise Land
-----------------
by Willie Nelson
(Verse1)
Give us your tired and weak
and we will make them strong
bring us your forign songs
and we will sing along
Leave us your broken dreams
we ll give them time to mend
there s still alot of love
livin in the promiseland
(Chorus)
livin in the promiseland
our dreams are made of steel
the prayer of every man
is to know how freedom feels
there is a winding road
across the shifting sand
and room for everyone
living in the promiseland
(Verse2)
so we came from a distant Isle
nameless woman faithless child
like a bad dream
until there was no room at all
no place to run and no place to fall
(Verse3)
give us your daily bread
we have no shoes to wear
no place to call our own
only this cross to bear
we are the multitude
lend us a helping hand
is there no love anymore
livin in the promiseland
(solo)
(Chorus)
and room for everyone livin in the promise land..
(end)
