Oh lord don’t let me out don’t let me be no stranger
I am no prisoner I know there is no danger
Oh lord don’t let me out don’t let me be no stranger
I am no prisoner I know there is no danger
Oh when you came into this world
You were a lonely mixed up girl
You know you gotta go so low
Don’t listen what they told
You gotta follow your own road
Don't leave her hanging all alone
Oh lord don’t let me out don’t let me be no stranger
I am no prisoner I know there is no danger
Oh lord don’t let me out don’t let me live in anger
I am no prisoner I stay for the remainder
There was a time I had so other
I never knew no place called home
You know we gotta face the cold
Tell god nowhere to go
You know I’m hanging on ‘til dawn
Oh lord my time will surely come
Oh lord don’t let me out don’t let me be no stranger
I am no prisoner I know there is no danger
Oh lord don’t hold me down don’t let me live in anger
I am no prisoner I stay for the remainder
