Broken Bones

The devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free The devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free I've been down, deep Texas, Mississippi state Hoping things might go my way For every hard earned dollar I make There stands a white man just to take it away Some might say I talk loud, see if I care Unlike them, don't walk away from my fear I've busted bones, broken stones, looked the devil in the eye I hope he's going to break these chains The devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free The devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free Another hard day, no water, no rest I saw my chance so I got him at last I took his six shooter, put two in his chest He'll never say a word no more He'll never say a word no more The devil got him good for sure Ain't got no place to call a home Only chains and broken bones Ain't got no place to call a home So come on Lord, won't you take me now Ain't got no place to call a home Only chains and broken bones Ain't got no place to call a home So come on Lord, what you waiting for The devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free The devil's going to make me a free man The devil's going to set me free
