Lyrics Waylon Jennings

Waylon Jennings

Low Down Freedom

Long haired young girl here beside me

Fit my body, warm my mind

Sleeping quiet never knowin'

By tomorrow she'll be one more thing

I'm gonna leave behind.

Like them big wheels I'll be rollin'

Like them rivers gonna flow to sea

'Cause I'd rather leave here knowin'

That I'd made the fool of love

Before it made the fool of me.

Low down freedom, you done cost me

Everything I'll ever lose Lord

You're as empty as my pockets

From the top of where you start

Down to the bottom of my shoes.

Open highway, lonesome wind blows

Tell me something I don't know

Wrapped in woman arms around me

Tell me why I'm gonna leave

And I don't really wanna go.

Low down freedom, you done cost me

Everything I'll ever lose Lord

You're as empty as my pockets

From the top of where you start

Down to the bottom of my shoes.

Low down freedom, you done cost me

Everything I'll ever lose Lord

You're as empty as my pockets

From the top of where you start

Down to the bottom of my shoes...
