Livin' in the Promise Land
-----------------
by Willie Nelson



(Verse1)
            
Give us your tired and weak
            
and we will make them strong
              
bring us your forign songs 
            
and we will sing along
              
Leave us your broken dreams
                
we'll give them time to mend
                   
there's still alot of love
             
livin in the promiseland



(Chorus)
            
livin in the promiseland
               
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
              
living in the promiseland



(Verse2)

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



(Verse3)
            
give us your daily bread
           
we have no shoes to wear
            
no place to call our own
          
only this cross to bear
           
we are the multitude
          
lend us a helping hand
            
is there no love anymore
             
livin in the promiseland


(solo)

(Chorus)
                                  
and room for everyone livin in the promise land..
