Lyrics: Bob Seger. Face The Promise. Face The Promise.

I've been down in the delta
working these fields
breaking my back
i need a better deal

so long mississippi
so long alabam
i want to face the promise
of the promised land

I got the fever dreams
mighty plans
i need a black top road
i need a wheel in my hands

so long arizona
so long desert sands
i need to face the promise
of the promised land

i've been tired of this river
these nothing nights
i'm just small towned out
i need city lights

so long allegheny
so long olean
i need to face the promise
of the promised land

I need a world of change
I need a brand new space
I need an El Dorado
that's go to be someplace

There's a line inside
I think I've crossed
You better watch out now
I'm gonna be my own boss

so long Massachusetts
so long ??
I need to face the promise
of the promised land

so long north dakota
you must understand
i need to face the promise
of the promised land

face the promise x4
