Lord, I've come a long way

And here's what I gotta say

I've paid but I had to pay

To play what I had to play



I was born in the country

Straight in the town

And I'll go anywhere

To see what's going down



I've seen cowards and hero

As fast as the wind

I go down any road there is

To see what's around the bend



And girls, I've had me a few

Some were small and some were cute

I've tasted the honey and dew

Lord, I will be with You



I was born in the country

Straight in the town

And I'd go anywhere

To see what's going down



I've seen cowards and hero

As fast as the wind

I go down any road there is

To see what's around the bend



Can you let me rest my

Weary head, weary head

Let's find out what this life is

Before we're dead

Before we're dead



Lord, I've come a long way

And here's what I have to say

I've paid what I had to pay

Lord, now I'm on my way



I was born in the country

Straight in the town

Well I'll go anywhere

To see what's going down



I've seen cowards and hero

As fast as the wind

I go down any road there is

To see what's around the bend
