Lyrics The Jeff Healey Band

The Jeff Healey Band

Freedom

You got my pride

hanging out of my bed

You're messin' around with my life

So I bought my lead

You even mess with my children

And you're screamin' at my wife, baby

Get off my back,

if you wanna get outta here alive

Freedom, that's what I want now

Freedom, that's what I need now

Freedom to live

Freedom, so I can give

You got my heart

speak electric water

You got my soul

screamin' and howlin'

You know you hook my girlfriend

You know the drugstore man

But I don't need it now

I was trying to slap it out of her head

Freedom, so I can give

Freedom, so I can give

Freedom, yeah

Freedom, that's what I need

You don't have to say that you love me

if you don't mean it

You'd better believe

If you need me

or you just wanna bleed me

you'd better stickin' your dagger in someone else

So I can leave

Set me free

Yeah

Right on, straight ahead

Stay up and straight ahead

Freedom
