(Chorus:)
Take Â?em away, take Â?em away, Lord
Take away these chains from me
My heart is broken Â?cause my spiritÂ?s not free
Lord take away these chains from me

Some birdsÂ? feathers are too bright to be caged
I know IÂ?m not that colorful but a bird just the same
Open up your gate now, let me put down my load
So I can feel at ease and go back to my home

(Chorus)

Sun beatinÂ? down, my legs canÂ?t seem to stand
ThereÂ?s a boss man at a turnrow with a rifle in his hand
IÂ?ve got nine child, nothinÂ? in the pan
My wife she died hungry while I was plowinÂ? land

(Chorus)

CanÂ?t see when I go to work, canÂ?t see when I get off

Sing with the song of Old Crow Medicine Show, Take 'em Away lyrics!

How do you expect a man not to get lost
Every year I just keep getting deeper in debt
If thereÂ?s a happy day, Lord, I havenÂ?t seen one yet

(Chorus)

Land that I love is the land that IÂ?m workinÂ?
But itÂ?s hard to love it all the time when your back is a-hurtinÂ?
GettinÂ? too old now to push this here plow
Please let me lay down so I can look at the clouds

(Chorus)

Land that I know is where two rivers collide
The Brazos the Navaso and the big blue sky
Flood plains, freight trains, watermelon vines
Of any place on GodÂ?s green earth, this is where I choose to die

(Chorus)
