Baez Joan Blessed Are... Lincoln Freed Me Today (The Slave) Been a slave most all my life soīs my kids and soīs my wife Iīve been working on the Colonelīs farm Ainīt been mistreated, ainīt done no harm Iīll be a slave to my grave No need of me being free. Recollect when I was just fourteen Freedom use to be my biggest dream Iīm older now, lot wiser too If I was free what would I do The Colones right good to me Heīs taken care of my family. The Colonel rode the buggy in from town Hitched the horse and called us all around Said he couldnīt keep us here no more I saw a tear as he walked toward the door Oh Dear God, what did he say? Lincoln freed me today. David Patton Published by Rolling Meadows Music ASCAP 3:21 |
