Lyrics
VERSE 1 I think about our nation and And what it means to live among the free You look at all the other countries There's no place else I'd rather be But in these times, I've seen some real crimes, Against my freedom now I gotta be tough In America! CHORUS I was born free. Free to say what I want to say. And I will not lose that freedom. Until they carry me away. VERSE 2 There's times I hardly recognize The country that I knew so well They've replaced peoples' thoughts of freedom With whatever ideas they can sell But take a look around, some folks are going down, You know my freedom's not yours to give. In America! CHORUS (double chorus): I was born free. Free to say what I want to say. And I will fire the guns of freedom. Until they carry me away. I was born free. Free to say what I want to say. And I will not lose that freedom. Until they carry me away. MINI SOLO (4 bars) BREAKDOWN You don't need permission to speak your mind. This is America! And I will fight to the death for freedom. CHORUS out
