Free Man lyrics

I sold my house, I sold my car

I took a job at Milly's bar

I met a man who was running from the government

Ah he wants to be a free man yeah

Ah he wants to be a free man yeah

He took me out to his campsite

I met his friends

They seemed alright

Until I noticed everybody seemed real upright

They just wanna be a free man now

They just wanna be a free man now

They just wanna be a free man now

Pardon me man

Oh but who's your mother

Oh and didn't she say

You should love one another

He showed me how to load a piece

To shoot it straight between the teeth

And the next thing I know I think I've fallen in love

And I'm living with a free man now

Now I'm cooking for the free man now

He took me out in his old truck

He told me anyone who ain't white sucks

That's when I realized I'd made a big mistake

Oh I'm running from the free man now

Oh I'm running from the free man now

Oh I'm running from the free man now Oh but pardon me man

Oh who's your mother

And didn't she teach you

She should love one another

Late one night I snuck away

To use the phone so I could say

I'd appreciate a little bit of government

Cause I'm married to a free man now

Oh I'm married to a free man now

Yeah I'm married to a free man now

Well I'm married to a free man now

Yeah I'm married to a free man now

Oh I'm married to a free man now

I think I'm running from a free man

Running from a free man

Running from a free man now

Oh I'm running from a free man now

Oh I'm running from a free man now
