lyrics

I’ve been workin’ in the field since the beginning of the sun
The moon be shining brightly but still my work ain’t done
Don’t know my real name don’t even know where I’m from
But I just sent the message: Word is my time has come

Chorus
Can you free me
My baby
Darlin end my pain

I’ve been rollin’ so hard like a motor’s turnin’ gears
It’s made me so sad shed to many tears
But like the coins in a fountain I’ve been droppin’ all my fears
This dream of freedom I’ve had all of my years

Chorus

Although, I’ll be gone
I will always here you in your southern drawn tongue
If you’re daddy knew you loved a slave for certain I’d been hung
With your help by early morning a free man I will become

Chorus

Free me
Oh my baby, set my soul alright
And dig my bones and bury them all
Without you I’d be nothing at all

Chorus
