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, oh, 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

Ain't got no place to call a home (the devil's going to make me a free man)

Only chains and broken bones (the devil's going to set me free)

Ain't got no place to call a home (the devil's going to make me a free man)

So come on lord, won't you take me now (the devil's going to set me free)

Ain't got no place to call a home (the devil's going to make me a free man)

Only chains and broken bones (the devil's going to set me free)

Ain't got no place to call a home (the devil's going to make me a free man)

So come on Lord, what you waiting for (the devil's going to set me free)
