This is hallowed ground, 40 acres and a mule
Came down here looking for the truth
And to find my my heart or at least a part
After what she put me through

Well, she used to say people never change
Looking back that seems so strange
Coming from such a cold, cold heart
She left a trail of tears ‘cross Arkansas

Things will be better out here on this land
Nothing here to hurt me I’ll make my stand
No one to break a promise, no one say goodbye
Just me alone dancing with my pride

I’ll forgive her soon
By the light of the prairie moon
Imagining her kiss and sweet perfume
I’ll close my eyes and I'll see her face
In a dream I’ll be
The man I’d hoped to be
But for now…
