to auction off the land He said:
F#m A E
"John, it s just my job
F#m A E
And I hope you understand."
F#m A E
Hey, calling it your job, ole hoss

But if you want me to I ll say a prayer
F#m A E
for your soul tonight
Dsus2
And grandma s on the front porch swing
[Pre-Chorus]
Esus4
With a Bible in her hand
Dsus2
Sometimes I hear her singing
Esus4
Take me to the Promised Land
When you take away a man s dignity
Dsus2
He can t work his fields and cows
There ll be
