Freedom For The Stallion Lyrics - Yes We Can And Then Some - Lee Dorsey

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 the 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 the 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 the way 

Oh, Lord, you got to help them find the way 

Oh, Lord, you got to help us find the way
