Lyrics:

Millions of rivers and pines, Mountains that touch the divine, I found a path that is mine, I'm ready and willing to climb.



Tell Mama I learned how to follow my freedom, And Papa I learned how to play for keeps, And God only knows how I'll live to see heaven, But I know I'm willing to try, to try.



Back in the place I was born, My body was looked on with scorn, Nobody called me by name, But I learned to live with the shame.



Tell Mama I learned how to follow my freedom, And Papa I learned how to play for keeps, And God only knows how I'll live to see heaven, But I know I'm willing to try, to try.
