You left your home and the things you had to say
In a beautiful place, in a beautiful place
And you'll be free in a beautiful place
I'll see you soon 'cause thy haven't got a case
I miss you girl I think I'm gonna cry
It didn't feel good to let you slide
Your heart is pure so the Devil's in your face
I never got to say goodbye
He took your soul and he stole your only heart
If they knock on your door you already gave
America, America, America, America
You don't need no more of what's ailing you
Sister, sister, sister, sister, sister, it's just a test of faith
May God bring you back home to America
Flipped your wig and left a permanent scar
Just lean on your soul with all that it takes
Sister, did you have to go away?
