[Verse 1]
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 [E/F#]stay [E/G#]un made
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
O. . .Leave me alone
To find my own way home
To find my own way home
[Verse 2]
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
O. . .Leave me alone
To find my own way home
To find my own way home
[Verse 3]
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 would 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
O. . .Leave me alone
To find my own way home
To find my own way home
