Lyrics Eagles - Rory Block

I've been beaten, I've been robbed
I've been left for dead
I've walked the streets alone
With no place to lay my head
I've been a million miles
Seen the state of the world
A mighty long journey for a lonely girl
I ain't nobody's child
I make nobody happy
Got no friends or family
No one ever did want me
Since the day I was born
I've been making my way
But I always knew there'd be another day
I always knew
A better time would come
I said I always knew
Another time would come
Just seeking a place to call my own
A resting place that I call home
That I call home
My parents did not want me
They were just too young
Their lives and dreams were calling
Taking care of number one
So I grabbed a guitar
Touched the strings of steel
Never put it down
The way it made me feel
Now I'm a singer
Of the roots of country blues
You could say I love the music
You could say I paid my dues
Immersed in guitar
I had no other choice
Inspired by the beauty of an honest voice
Another change will come
I said I always knew
Another time would come
Seeking a place to call my own
A resting place that I call home
Open up the windows
'Cause there's freedom in the air
The strains of gospel singers
Who would leave this world of care
Swing low, reach high
Let the music roll
Songs from the ages
A cry from the soul
I always knew
Another time would come
I said I always knew
Another time, another chance to get it right
Seeking a place to call my own
A resting place that I call home
