I Washed My Face in the Morning Dew Liz Anderson

The first strange town I was ever in
The county was hangin' a man
Nobody cared if he lived or died
And I just didn't understand
So I washed my face in the morning dew
Bathed my soul in the sun
Washed my face in the morning dew
And kept on moving along

The second strange town I was in
They were laughin' at a poor crippled man
Begging for nickels and dimes on the street
And I just didn't understand
So I washed my face in the morning dew
And kept on moving along

The third strange town that I was in
Was settled peaceful and nice
The rich got richer and the poor got poorer
And to me it just didn't seem right
So I washed my face in the morning dew...
And kept on moving along

Someday times are bound to change
It can't be very far
And each injustice I have seen
Will come before the bar
