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 need a world of changes

I need a brand new space

I need an El Dorado

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
