BROKEN BONES

The devil's going to make me a free man
The devil's going to set me free Oh, 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, oh yeah 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 (Yeah, 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? Oh, 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) |
(from ARTISTdirect interview) "Broken bones which is a very bluesy, like Delta Blues vibe song. that was inspired by American slave history and stuff, and that was kind of the inspiration for writing that one." video from Yahoo!Music Rising Exclusive Performance (31 Mar 2016)
