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)
