lincoln freed me - ian & sylvia lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
been a slave almost all my life
so’s my kids, so’s my wife
i’ve been workin’ on the colonel’s farm
ain’t been mistreated, ain’t done no harm
i’ll be a slave to my grave
no need in me bein’ free

[verse 2]
recollect when i was just fourteen
freedom used to be my biggest dream
i’m older now, lot wiser, too
if i was free what would i do?
the colonel’s been right good to me
he’s taken care of my family

[verse 3]
the colonel rode the buggy in from town
hitched the horse and called us all around
said he couldn’t keep us here no more
i saw a tear as hе walked toward the door
oh, dear god, what did hе say?
“lincoln freed me today”
