I'm Leavin'
Felt like turning away
'cause I paid and paid
a price too high
for me to stay
It was clear to me
pride won't set you free
this home ain't what it's supposed to be
ol' man told me
you ain't nothing without me
you wait-n-see
now I'm leavin'
and mama's cryin'
please don't go
I got no lock and chain
the devil I knew
had me tied and true
my cross to bear
that i broke through
say believers
ain't believin'
and wishers
ain't wishin' for more
chorus
I got no lock and chain
ol' man told me
you got wishes
and if wishes were horses
we'd all ride
'cause I paid and paid
a price too high
for me to stay
It was clear to me
pride won't set you free
this home ain't what it's supposed to be
ol' man told me
you ain't nothing without me
you wait-n-see
now I'm leavin'
and mama's cryin'
please don't go
I got no lock and chain
the devil I knew
had me tied and true
my cross to bear
that i broke through
say believers
ain't believin'
and wishers
ain't wishin' for more
chorus
I got no lock and chain
ol' man told me
you got wishes
and if wishes were horses
we'd all ride
