95 South [All of the Places We’ve Been]

In my lifetime, I've been in towns
Where there was no freedom or future around
I've been in places where you could not eat
Or take a drink of water wherever you pleased
And now that I meet you in
The middle of a mountain
Well, I'm reaching on out from within
And all I can think of
Are chapters and scenes of
All of the places we've been

I'm not such an old man
So don't get me wrong
I'm the latest survivor of
The constantly strong
I've been to Mississippi and
Down city streets
I've seen days of plenty and
Nights with nothing to eat
But I'm not too happy 'bout
The middle of a mountain, so
Soon I'll be climbing again
‘Cause all I can think of
Are chapters and scenes of
All of the places we've been

Raised up in a small town
In the country down south
So I've been close enough to
Know what oppression's about
Placed on this mountain with a
Rare chance to see
Dreams once envisioned by folks
Much braver than me
And since their lives got me to
The middle of a mountain
Well, I can't stop and give up on them
‘Cause their lights that shine on
Inspire me to climb on
From all of the places we've been
From all of the places we've been
From all of the places we've
Been a lot of places, yeah
From all of the places we've been
Been down, been down
Been down a lot of roads and places
All of the places, from all of the
All of the, all of the
All of the places we've
Been down, been down, been down
A lot of roads, yeah, together
Together
