Ricky Nelson - I Shall Be Released lyrics

They say every man can be replaced Say every distance is not real That I can remember every face Every man who's put me here I've seen my life go shinin' From the west down to the east And any day now, any day now I shall be released They say every man needs protection Say every man must fall That I swear I see my reflection We're so high above this wall I've seen my life go shinin' From the west down to the east And any day now, any day now I shall be released Yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd And he swears he's not to blame All day I long I hear him cryin' out That he was framed I've seen my life go shinin' From the west down to the east And any day now, any day now I shall be released And any day now, any day now I shall be released
