All Of God's Children Ain't Free
Johnny Cash
Ton : C
Intro :C Am C G C
CI'd sing more about mFore of this laCnd
But all God's cGhildren ain't frCee
CI'd open up ev'ry dFoor I caCn
Cause all God's cGhildren ain't frCee
GI met a beaten broken man
He sChovels dirt but goFt no lanCd
And he held out his hAmand to me
CAll God's cGhildren ain't frCee
I'd sing along to a silly song
But all God's children ain't free
I'm gonna sing a blues for the man they done wrong
Cause all God's children ain't free
Mister how 'bout the man you condem to die
By takin'ev'rything that he's livin'by
And reject him from society
All God's children ain't free
No, reject him from society
All God's children ain't free
Instrumental :C Am C G C
I'd be happy walkin'any street
But all God's children ain't free
I'd have a smile for all I meet
But all God's children ain't free
I'd whistle down the road but I wouldn't feel right
I'd hear somebody cryin'out at night
From a sharecropper's shack or penitentiary
All God's children ain't free
From a sharecropper's shack or penitentiary
All God's children ain't free
