Freedom For The Stallion

Boz Scaggs · My Time [1972]

Freedom for the stallion



Freedom for the mare and her colt



Freedom for the baby child



Who has not grown old enough to vote



Lord, have mercy, what You gonna do



About the people who are praying to You?



They got men making laws that destroy other men



They make money, God, it's a doggone sin



Oh Lord, You got to help us find a way



Big ships sailing



Slaves all chained and bound



Headed for a brand new land



That some cat says he up and found



Lord, have mercy, what You gonna do



About the people who are praying to You?



They got men making laws that destroy other men



To make money, God, it's a doggone sin



Oh Lord, You got to help us find a way, yeah



Freedom for the stallion



Freedom for the mare and her colt



Freedom for the baby child



Who has not grown old enough to vote



Lord, have mercy, what You gonna do



About the people who are praying to You?



You know if I could look inside Your mind



I'd bring back all the truth I find



Oh Lord, You gotta help us find a way



Freedom for the stallion



Freedom for the mare and her colt



Freedom for the baby child



Who has not grown old enough to vote
