Title: Promised Land
Words Debra Lee & Rick Denzien Music By: Rick Denzien
Ver 6

Verse 1:
Nine to five turned twenty-four seven
To make ends meet and earn a livin'
Then she saw her dream house on a Facebook ad
For a small investment with a real estate man

Left her job at corporate last winter
To move south who knew it was in her
Cash the 401 K ‘cause she's got a plan
Gonna find her dream in the Promised Land

Pre-Chorus:
In the land of good n plenty
She/He can have it all if you got the money
With a line of credit and three hundred grand
She/He can buy her/his dream
Hook:
In the Promised Land - land
In the Promised Land - land
In the Promised Land

Verse 2:
First one in his family in college
He made 'em pound he had the knowledge
Got a great invention grabbed the golden ring
Found a few investors for riches profits bring

Had it all the big house and Beemer
The market crashed and things got leaner
Hijack product now a knock-off China brand
When he sold his dream in the Promised Land

Pre-hook:
In the land of milk and honey
You can have it all if you got the money
Takes a million to kick-start a business plan
And you can lose your dream

Hook:

Bridge:
Can't escape the state religion
Goes by the name consumerism
You can even buy the preach'en
Making this decree
Purchase now pays it later
Win your field of dreams

Pre-Chorus:
In the land of sacred money
You can screw / rule everyone
If you got plenty
With a few billion dollars at your command
You can call the shots

Hook:

Verse 3
Nine to five turned twenty-four seven
To make ends meet and earn a livin'
Gaz-n at the stars
And try to understand
I’ll never give up dreamin' –
In the Promised Land

Rick Denzien Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

From the deep, cold & dark of Buffalo, NY comes an artist - Rick Denzien - who is digging out - with songwriting that has ignited his new CD release, R A D I A T E.

As if fate was like being stuck behind a snow plow on the Thruway in the middle of a raging blizzard on pack snow & black ice while driving 65 mph… never being able to see more than 15 to 25 feet ahead.”
