When the men take me to the devil tree
i will be free and shining like before
papa dont tell me what i should've done
she's the one who begged me
"take me home"

when the wind wraps me like the reaper's hand
i will swing free until they cut me down
papa dont tell me what i could've done
she's the one who begged me
"take me home"

when the sea takes me like my mother's arms
i will breathe free as any word of god
papa dont tell me what you would've done
she's the one who begged me
"take me home"
