Broken Bones

The devil's gonna make me a free man

The devil's gonna set me free

The devil's gonna make me a free man

The devil's gonna set me free

I went 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 gonna make me a free man

The devil's gonna set me free

The devil's gonna make me a free man

The devil's gonna 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

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 gonna make me a free man

The devil's gonna set me free

The devil's gonna make me a free man

The devil's gonna set me free

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

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

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

So come on, Lord, what you waiting for? (The devil's gonna set me free)

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

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

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

So come on Lord, what you waiting for? (The devil's gonna set me free)
