Freedom for the Stallion

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've made money God it's a doggone sin

Oh Lord You got to help us find a way

Big ship's a sailing

Slaves all chained and bound

Heading for a brand new land

That some cat said he upped 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

They've made money God it's a doggone sin

Oh Lord You got to help us find a way

Some sing a sad song

Some got to moan the blues

Trying to make the best of a home

That the man didn't even get to choose

Lord have mercy how You gonna be

With people like John and me

They've got men building fences to keep other men out

Ignore him if he whispers and kill him if he shouts

Oh Lord You got to help us find a way

Oh Lord You got to help them find the way

Oh Lord You got to help us find a way
