Verse 2
There ain't no way to pull the curtain
And hide from hunger's rage
There ain't no town to stop in
There ain't no time to stop in
There ain't no straw for
my horse
There ain't no straw for my bed
There ain't no comfort in
cold boards
There ain't no rumour or
food for my stomach
And someday I'm gonna be saved
'Cause I gotta eat 'n drink
'n breathe 'n sleep

Interlude 1

And I'm a slave

E 
There's a soul dying  (E major) 'n rottin'

 (A minor) And  pickin' some new kinda cotton
With his fingers broken
And his heart, back and forgotten
