Doesn't Mean We're Free

Let me tell you something Something mama told to me Just because we don't see no chains Doesn't mean we're free Years of feast or famine Hang beneath the trees Some say they don't see no chains Doesn't mean they're free Doesn't mean we're free, no It doesn't mean we're free Just because we don't see no chains Doesn't mean we're free Blues will come a knockin' Knockin' hard upon your door Better hope that you ain't home Or you won't come home no more Locked me up in winter Stayed there right until the fall Only crime's the skin I'm in My back against the wall Doesn't mean we're free, no It doesn't mean we're free Just because we don't see no chains Doesn't mean we're free
