Road to Jubilee

[Verse 1]
Now I dream about the big house by the side of Laurel Creek
We're sitting there in a rocking chairs with the children at our feet
We've got a dog called Music, and a mule we'll ride to town
That's all I ever wanted if I ever settle down

[Verse 2]
When a boy from Texarkana find a girl to take his name
Thought their love they made and the vows they gave always would remain
Was garden full of thorns but the roses smelled so sweet
What was bound together was bound to break at the hands of love's deceit

[Chorus]
On the road to jubilee, take me back in time
Before I left for Tennessee, living on memories
On the road to jubilee, I keep a picture in my mind
And I'm counting down the days 'till they set me free
'Till I'm walking down the road to jubilee

[Verse 3]
Now it's dark and cold and lonely inside these prison walls
And I'm not to blame for a dead man's crime, but still I took the fall
I've lost so many hours that I know I'll never find
Now I count the days 'till I walk away, leave this all behind

[Chorus]
On the road to jubilee, take me back in time
Before I left for Tennessee, living on memories
On the road to jubilee, I keep a picture in my mind
And I'm counting down the days till they set me free

[Bridge]
Across the cotton fields I hear the church bells ringing
Listen to the choir, hear the spiritual singing
Like sweet magnolia blossoms in the spring
Bringing me back again
Bringing me back again

[Chorus]
On the road to jubilee, take me back in time
Before I left for Tennessee, living on memories
On the road to jubilee, I keep a picture in my mind
And I'm counting down the days 'till they set me free
Walking down the road
Walking down the road to jubilee

[Outro]
Walking down the road
Walking down the road
Oh jubilee
Oh take me back, take me back
Take me back in time
Oh jubilee
