Belleville Blues Songtext
von Swift Silver

Standing
I′m standing
With a mighty heavy load
Oh, standing
Mama standing
At what you might call a crossroads

No one to carry my burden 'cept
Me alone
I′m calling out on this lonesome road
Father, son, and holy ghost


I follow no man's path
But my own
I follow no man's path
But my own
The sky above
She is my mother
The road ahead
My sister and my brother
I follow no man′s path
But my own

Waiting
I′m waiting
For a sign from up above
Oh, waiting
Mama waiting
With a hunger
And a thirst

No one to carry my burden 'cept
Me alone
Down on my knees, I beg God, please
For the strength to rise on up


I follow no man′s path
But my own
I follow no man's path
But my own
The sky above
She is my mother
The road ahead
My sister and my brother
I follow no man′s path
But my own

I follow no man's path
But my own
I follow no man′s path
But my own
The sky above
She is my mother
The road ahead
My sister and my brother
I follow no man's path
But my own

No man's path
But my own
