Walter Trout - Lookin' For The Promised Land lyrics

rate me

Lord came to Moses, he took him by the hand.<br />

He said I want you to lead your people, to the promised land.<br />

Now your brother faro, he might try to start a fight.<br />

But believe me Mo, everything will be allright.<br />

When you're looking for the promised land.<br />

When you're looking for the promised land.<br />

<br />

Lord came to Daniel, said Danny boy, my friend.<br />

Somebody's gonna take you, and throw you in the lion's dan.<br />

But believe me Danny, don't you worry about no cat.<br />

I'll be right beside you, and the lion can't do you bad.<br />

<br />

And all that they wanted, was a place where they could be.<br />

Living their lives, standing tall and free.<br />

My brothers and sisters, it's the same for you and me,<br />

we're looking for the promised land,<br />

we're looking for the promised land.<br />

Yes we are, nononononono....<br />

All that they wanted, was a place were they could be,<br />

living their lives, standing tall and free.<br />

My brothers and sister, it's the same for you and me,<br />

we're looking for the promised land,<br />

we're looking for the promised land.<br />

<br />

Lord came to Doctor King, said Marley won't you listen up.<br />

I want you to lead you're people, to the mountaintop.<br />

In the beginning of the journey, they took a life away.<br />

Now they can kill a man, but the dream lives on the way.<br />

<br />

And all that they wanted, was a place were they could be.<br />

Living their lives, standing tall and free.<br />

My brothers and sisters, it's the same for you and me, <br />

we're looking for the promised land, <br />

we're looking for the promised land,<br />

we're looking for the promised land, <br />

we're looking for the promised land,<br />

we're looking for the promised land, <br />

we're looking for the promised land,<br />

we're looking for the promised land, <br />

we're looking for the promised land.
