文本歌词

In my lifetime
I've been in towns where there was no freedom or future around
I've been in places where you could not eat or take a drink of water where ever you pleased
And now that
I meet you in the middle of a mountain
Well I'm reaching out from within
And all I can think of are chapters and scenes of all of the places we've been
I'm not such an old man so don't get me wrong
I'm the latest survivor of the constantly strong
I've been to
Mississippi and down city streets
I've seen days of plenty and nights with nothing to eat
But I'm not too happy 'bout the middle of a mountain so soon
I'll be climbing again
Cause all
I can think of are chapters and scenes of all of the places we've been
I was raised up in a small town in the country down south so
I've been close enough to know what oppression's about
Placed on this mountain with a rare chance to see dreams once envisioned by folks much braver than me
And since their lives got me to the middle of a mountain
Well I can't stop and give up on them
Cause their lights that shine on inspire me to climb on from all of the places we've been
From all of the places we've been
From all of the places we've been alot of places yeah
From all of the places we've been
Been down been down been down alot of roads and places
All of the places
