I dream of the day when I hear them say: You're free
I think it about it all the time
Well I can almost taste Mama's french fried bread
Country wine, moonshine puts ache in my head
And they won't believe it when I'm home

So break another dawn, let the Sun shine on this place
For tomorrow's the day I'm gonna wear a free man's face
Break another dawn, let the gates fly free and wide
For I pity the man that's gonna take my place inside

Time don't fly fast enough when you're laying here
Thinking of the day when you'll be free
Oh how I envy the bird with his wing up towards the view

I'll be home in the morning before the dew
They won't believe it when I'm home

So break another dawn, let the Sun shine on this place
For tomorrow's the day I'm gonna wear a free man's face
Break another dawn, let the gates fly free and wide
Though I pity the man that's gonna take my place inside

I'll be home long before they can close my prison door
They won't believe it when I'm home

Oh break another dawn, let the Sun shine on this place
For tomorrow's the day I'm gonna wear a free man's face
Break another dawn, let the gates fly free and wide
So I pity the man that's gonna take my place inside

Break another dawn, let the Sun shine on this place
For tomorrow's the day I'm gonna wear a free man's face
Break another dawn, let the gates fly free and wide
Though I pity the man that's gonna take my place inside

Break another dawn, let the Sun shine on this place
For tomorrow's the day I'm gonna wear a free man's face
