I was working real hard to make my living, yet, I was barely making ends meet
It seemed every year more and more of my pay went to feed some swine in D.C.
But when I looked out in the streets I saw all the crime and the gangs and the drugs
Then you had the damn audacity to want to take away my gun
So I'm getting free, upon this highway of life i'm getting free
Upon this higher way of life I'm rolling, hunting up some dreams
Won't you come along and look awhile with me
Won't you come along and search awhile with me
Manipulative minds and herded, silent sheep
The ways and the means may not be what they seem for a man's character isn't skin deep
And when I looked out in this world I found all the hate and the wars and the blood
Then you had the damn audacity to want to take away my God
So I'm getting free, upon this highway of life i'm getting free
Upon this higher way of life I'm rolling, hunting up some dreams
Won't you come along and look awhile with me
Won't you come along and search awhile with me
**I'm free.....How 'bout you??****
(lead guitar)
I'm standing on this fence a'listening to the people on every side
If only they could hear themselves then join me on freedom's ride
But instead I see the same hate and greed and the silent racism
Then you have the damn audacity to want to take away my love
So I'm getting free, upon this highway of life i'm getting free
Upon this higher way of life I'm rolling, hunting up some dreams
Won't you come along and look awhile with me
Won't you come along and search awhile with me
I'm getting free, upon this highway of life i'm getting free
Upon this higher way of life I'm rolling, hunting up some dreams
Won't you come along and look awhile with me
Won't you come along and search awhile with me
Won't you come along and look awhile with me
Won't you come along and search awhile with me
