They got men makin' laws that destroy other men

makin' money God, it's a dog-gone sin

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

Freedom for the stallion

Freedom for the mare and the colt

Freedom for the baby child

Who's not grown old enough to vote

Lord have mercy

What You gonna do

About the people that are prayin' to You

Well, when I look Into my mind

It's the truth that I find

Oh Lord, You gotta help us find a way.

Freedom for the stallion

Freedom for the mare and the colt

Freedom for the baby child

Who has not grown old enough to vote

Lord have mercy

What You gonna do

About the people that are prayin' to You

Well, when I look Into my mind

It's the truth that I find

Oh Lord, You gotta help us find a way.

"Allright, what do you think of that?"
