Written by Stefan Szabo, Isaac Szabo Capo 4 Key ( Capo 4) Twenty-two and I'm on my own Floatin' down the Sangamon Denton told me by any means Head on down to New Orleans Saw a man locked in a cage Twenty dollars someone paid His life no more belonged to him His sweat his blood his tears to them Through all this constant misery Always pretending to believe I seem to find myself longing for what was And some they never will agree Eye to eye they cannot see I'd walk a thousand miles for to come back home x2 The struggles now they've come and gone The end is near it won't be long When I am king I'll set you free From the chains of those you feed Well their hearts are black but their skin is white They won't go down without a fight They never care just what is said They won't give in 'till blood is shed Bridge: Honestly, honesty's just not for me I'd trade it all for a simple life, it's true
