"I Shall be Released" by Bob Dylan

 

On Atwater Street, under the overpass


They say everything can be replacedThey say every distance is not nearSo I remember every faceOf every man who put me here
I see my light come shiningFrom the west down to the eastAny day now, any day nowI shall be released
They say every man needs protectionThey say that every man must fallYet I swear I see my reflectionSomewhere so high above this wall
I see my light come shiningFrom the west down to the eastAny day now, any day nowI shall be released
Now, yonder stands a man in this lonely crowdA man who swears he's not to blameAll day long I hear him shouting so loudJust crying out that he was framed
I see my light come shiningFrom the west down to the eastAny day now, any day nowI shall be released
