One of these days boy, i'm gonna see my woman. I'm gonna see my children, children on their knee. Gonna run up to my woman, and hold her in my arms. With tears in her eyes, she said i'm glad you're free.
I got water on the brain. My mind is like a drain. Here I go again. Over the hill. . My eyes don't seem too clear. I'm not sure what I hear. It seems I'm going clear.
Once there was a time I'd rob my mama. For a good meal and a smoke. Once there was a time I'd sell my brother. For a dollar when I was broke. . But I'd never sell my guitar.
I'm on the road to freedom. On the road to love. Yonder can you see them. Who they're thinking of. . I met a rich man on the road. He told me where to go.
