Liberty!
Saw a bird
with a tear in his eye… Walking to New Orleans, my oh my
Hey, Now,
Bird, wouldn't you rather die? than walk this world, when you're born to fly?
If I was the
sun, I'd look for shade… If I was a bed, I would stay unmade
If I was a
river, I'd run uphill… If you call me, you know I will
If you call
me, you know I will
Ooo, freedom…
Ooo, liberty! Ooo, leave me alone… to find my own way home…
Find my own
way home
Say what I
mean and I don't give a damn… I do believe and I am who I am
Hey now Mama
come and take my hand… Whole lotta shakin' all over this land
If I was an
eagle I'd dress like a duck… crawl like a lizard and honk like a truck
If I get a
notion I'll climb this tree… or chop it down and you can't stop me
Chop it down
and you can't stop me
Ooo, freedom…
Ooo, liberty! Ooo, leave me alone… to find my own way home…
Find my own
way home
Went to the
well but the water was dry… Dipped my bucket in the clear blue sky
Looked in
the bottom and what did I see? The whole damned world looking back at me!
If I was a
bottle I'd spill for love… Sake of mercy, I'd kill for love
If I was a
liar I'd lie for love… Sake of my baby, I'd die for love
Sake of my
baby I'd die for love
Ooo, freedom…
Ooo, liberty! Ooo, leave me alone… to find my own way home…
Find my own
way home
I'm gonna
find my own way home.
