Free the People
Laws were made for people
And the law can never scorn
The right of a man to be free
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
The dismal dawn was breaking
When they[ took her man away
Not knowing what was his crime
Just what was he guilty of
Not one of them could say
But they'll think of something in time
He says goodbye and remembers
We shall overcome
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
Comforting her children
Softly crying in the night
She tried very hard to explane
You know your daddy never did a thing
That wasn't right
So soon he's bound to be home again
He is a good man
And we shall overcome
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
What does it profit him
The right to be born
If he suffers the loss of liberty
Lawas were made for people
And the law can never scorn
The right of a man to be free
We are the people
And we shall overcome
We are the people
And we shall overcome
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
Free the people, let them have their say...
And the law can never scorn
The right of a man to be free
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
The dismal dawn was breaking
When they[ took her man away
Not knowing what was his crime
Just what was he guilty of
Not one of them could say
But they'll think of something in time
He says goodbye and remembers
We shall overcome
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
Comforting her children
Softly crying in the night
She tried very hard to explane
You know your daddy never did a thing
That wasn't right
So soon he's bound to be home again
He is a good man
And we shall overcome
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
What does it profit him
The right to be born
If he suffers the loss of liberty
Lawas were made for people
And the law can never scorn
The right of a man to be free
We are the people
And we shall overcome
We are the people
And we shall overcome
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
Free the people, let them have their say
Free the people let them see the light of day
Free the people, let them have their say...
