Earl Scruggs Lyrics
"I Shall Be Released"

They say everything can be replaced
They say every distance is not near
And I remember every face
Of every man who put me here

I see my light come shinin'
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released

They say every man must need protection
They say that every man must fall
And I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall

I see my light come shinin'

From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released

Down here next to me in this lonely, lonely crowd
There's aman who swears he's not to blame
All day long, I hear him cry so loud
Calling out that he was framed

I see my light come shinin'
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released

Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
