I want clean air; I want a piece of land I want to tell the truth, do my share and work with my hands I want to live, live in peace with everyone I know I want my kids close to me; I want to let them go Chorus: I need my Lord, I need Jesus I want enough sleep and a roof over my head I want to be free; I want to live like the bible said I want to speak and I want to sing; I want to be heard I want to say what I mean without so many words Chorus I want to love my man; I want to grow old with him I want to run the race at hand; I want to run it to win
