Head down as I punch this clock
The hours roll, they never stop
And I can't ever seem to get ahead
Always trying to do what's right
The straight and narrow's
Don't know how much longer I can stand
Where's my promised land?
Out here on this desert road
It's hot as fire but I've grown cold
Circling like a plane that never lands
And even though the questions change,
the answers always stay the same
Maybe someday I will understand
Where's my promised land?
Where's my promised land?
Well, I've run this earth for many years
And there's one thing I know
There's nowhere on this side of heaven
The streets are made of gold
And I've long laid down my
Looking toward the day that I'll be home
I won't give up on this race
Broken but I still have faith
That this old life is all part of a plan
And I can feel it in my soul
One day I'll stand before the throne
With nothing left but hope in
Through all these seasons,
Ooh, you're my promised land
