Bob Seger — Face The Promise

[Verse 1] I've been down in the delta workin' these fields Breakin' my back, I need a better deal So long Mississippi, so long Alabam' I want to face the promise of the Promised Land [Verse 2] I've got fevered dreams, mighty plans I need a black top road, I need a wheel in my hands So long Arizona, so long desert sands I need to face the promise of the Promised Land [Verse 3] I'm tired of this river, these nothin' nights I'm small towned out, I need city lights So long Allegany, so long Olean I need to face the promise of the Promised Land [Bridge] I'll need a world of changes, I need a brand new space I need an El Dorado, there's got to be someplace [Verse 4] There's a line inside I think I've crossed You better watch out now I'm gonna be my own boss So long Massachusetts, so long Framingham I need to face the promise of the Promised Land So long North Dakota, you must understand I need to face the promise of the Promised Land [Outro] Face the promise (Ow) Face the promise (Oh) Face the promise (Ah, ooh) Face the promise
