Promised Land
High rises reaching to the moon
And I can't see the sky
They say the city never sleeps
Well neither do I
These four walls have got me down
And I'm sick of this here town
And everyone
And everything
I guess it's time to get on out
Where the fish are jumping
And the birds sing
With the city lights behind me
And the black top up ahead
Let the long white line guide me
All the way to the promised land
All the way to the promised land
Out here the time is passing slow
The river runs along
I know I need a little peace
And somewhere I belong
These four walls have got me down
And I'm sick of this damn town
And everything
And everyone
I guess it's time to get on out
Past the county line
Where the living's done
With the city lights behind me
And the black top up ahead
Let the long white line guide me
All the way to the promised land
I'm gonna put that life behind me
I'm gonna put that shit to bed
Let the long white line guide me
All the way to the promised land
And I can't see the sky
They say the city never sleeps
Well neither do I
These four walls have got me down
And I'm sick of this here town
And everyone
And everything
I guess it's time to get on out
Where the fish are jumping
And the birds sing
With the city lights behind me
And the black top up ahead
Let the long white line guide me
All the way to the promised land
All the way to the promised land
Out here the time is passing slow
The river runs along
I know I need a little peace
And somewhere I belong
These four walls have got me down
And I'm sick of this damn town
And everything
And everyone
I guess it's time to get on out
Past the county line
Where the living's done
With the city lights behind me
And the black top up ahead
Let the long white line guide me
All the way to the promised land
I'm gonna put that life behind me
I'm gonna put that shit to bed
Let the long white line guide me
All the way to the promised land
