Well the boss man cut my chains and set me free
Now I donât know, I donât know what will come of me
I donât know nothing except the way I live â¦
Now the boss man cut my chains
And set me free
My father was a working slave
Just like me
You learn to keep your head down
Donât look to see
Whatâs going on all around you
All my life been that way
Now the boss man cut my chains
And he walk away
Now I canât write and I canât read
I have no school
And here Iâm standing in the world
Like a worn out mule
I donât know what is going to come now
Or what will be
Well now the boss man cut my chains
Says him free
What can I do
Whatâs going to become of me?
I donât know nothing
Except these working fields I see
Oh now Iâm standing on the outside
With a fear inside me
Now the boss man cut my chains
And said Iâm free
