Mangy dog on a rusted chain
Bordertown, just another day
Burning sun and a dried up well
Thirsty man in a living hell
Busted prayers of a Judas faith
Swim around in a concrete haze
Sweat drippin’ off a leather face
When’s it gonna rain
Freedom Land, Freedom Land
Take me to the river
wash me clean again
Freedom Land, Freedom Land
Won’t you take me down to
Freedom Land
Killin’ time with the enemy
They cut me open just to watch me bleed
Chasing heaven like a gypsy king
But not hoping much for anything
Freedom Land, Freedom Land
Take me to the river
wash me clean again
Freedom Land, Freedom Land
Won’t you take me down to
Freedom Land
I got nothing keepin me alive
Tried everything I know to try
Sweet Jesus help me catch a ride
Over to the other side
Freedom Land, Freedom Land
Take me to the river
wash me clean again
Freedom Land, Freedom Land
Won’t you take me down to
Freedom Land
