Reply #23: How About "Living In the Promise Land" -- Willie Nelson

[GiovanniC]

The only things we're gonna despair about is jobs, women, and pickup trucks.

==========================================================

Give us your tired and weak
And we will make them strong
Bring us your foreign songs
And we will sing along
Leave us your broken dreams
We'll give them time to mend
There's still a lot of love
Livin' in the Promised Land
Livin' in the Promised Land
Our dreams are made of steel
The prayer of every man
Is to know how freedom feels
There is a winding road
Across the shifting sand
And room for everyone
Livin' in the Promised Land

So we came from a distant isle
Nameless woman, faithless child
Like a bad dream
Until there was no room at all
No place to run, and no place to fall
Give us your daily bread
We have no shoes to wear
No place to call our home
Only this cross to bare
We are the multitudes
Lend us a helping hand
Is there no love anymore
Livin' in the Promised Land

Livin' in the Promised Land
Our dreams are made of steel
The prayer of every man
Is to know how freedom feels
There is a winding road
Across the shifting sand
And room for everyone
Livin' in the Promised Land

And room for everyone
Livin' in the Promised Land
