Lyrics: Iron & Wine. Free Until They Cut Me Down.

When the men take me to the devil tree

I will be free and shining like before

Papa dont tell me what I should've done

She's the one who begged me

"Take me home"



When the wind wraps me like the reaper's hand

I will swing free until they cut me down

Papa dont tell me what I could've done

She's the one who begged me

"Take me home"



When the sea takes me like my mother's arms

I will breathe free as any word of God

Papa dont tell me what you would've done

She's the one who begged me

"Take me home"
