Face the Promise

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'll need a world of changes, I need a

Brand new space

I need an Eldorado, 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
