I've been down in the delta
Working these fields
Breaking 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 nothing nights
I'm just small towned out
I need city lights
So long Allegheny
So long Olean
I need to face the promise
=f the promised land
I need a world of change
I need a brand new space
I need an El Dorado
There'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
Face the promise x4
