Preacher preacher pray for me

I'm treading water of liberty

Like a fire set me free

Brimstone be my peace

Oh Lord if You condemn me to freedom

I'm chained by the blues

I can't win for losin'

I can't win for losin'

Mama Mama don't cry

I'm on the wrong side of right

Oh in the darkness I'm the light

In my truth I will rise

Oh Lord if You condemn me to freedom

I'm chained by the blues

I can't win for losin'

If I'm unholy when I'm whole

And happy in my soul

When it's my time to go

I'm a lost cause fasho

You condemn me to freedom

I'm chained by the blues

I can't win for losin'

I can't win for losin'

Oh I can't win for losin'

I can't win for losin'
