Looking For Freedom 2011
One morning in June some 20 years ago
I was born a rich man's son
I had everything that money could buy
But freedom, I had none
I've been looking for freedom
I've been looking so long
I've been looking for freedom
Still, the search goes on
I've been looking for freedom
Since I left my hometown
I've been looking for freedom
Still, it can't be found
I headed down the track, my baggage on my back
I left the city far behind (ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Walking down that road with my heavy load
Trying to find some ease of mind (mind, mind, mind, mind)
Father said, "You'll be sorry, son
If you leave your home this way
And when you realize the freedom money buys
You'll come running home someday"
I've been looking for freedom (where's my freedom?)
I've been looking so long (since my twenties, yeah)
I've been looking for freedom (tell my father)
Still, the search goes on (goes on, on, on)
I've been looking for freedom (can somebody help me? Help me)
Since I left my hometown (where's my freedom?)
I've been looking for freedom (freedom, baby, where's mine?)
Still, it can't be found
I paid a lot of dues, had plenty to lose
Traveling across the land (I missed the bus)
Worked on the farm, got some muscle in my arm
But still, I'm not a self-made man
I've been on the run for many years to come
I'll be searching door-to-door
And given some time, someday I'm gonna find
The freedom (freedom, freedom, freedom), I've been searching for
I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
I've been looking so long (looking so long)
I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
Still, the search goes on (still, the search goes on)
I've been looking for freedom (yeah, I'm been looking for freedom)
Since I left my hometown (left my hometown)
I've been looking for freedom (been looking for freedom)
Still, it can't be found (still, it can't be found)
I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
I've been looking so long (looking so long)
I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
Still, the search goes on (and still, the search goes on)
I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
Since I left my hometown (left my hometown)
I've been looking for freedom (been looking for freedom)
Still, it can't be found (can't be found)
I was born a rich man's son
I had everything that money could buy
But freedom, I had none
I've been looking for freedom
I've been looking so long
I've been looking for freedom
Still, the search goes on
I've been looking for freedom
Since I left my hometown
I've been looking for freedom
Still, it can't be found
I headed down the track, my baggage on my back
I left the city far behind (ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Walking down that road with my heavy load
Trying to find some ease of mind (mind, mind, mind, mind)
Father said, "You'll be sorry, son
If you leave your home this way
And when you realize the freedom money buys
You'll come running home someday"
I've been looking for freedom (where's my freedom?)
I've been looking so long (since my twenties, yeah)
I've been looking for freedom (tell my father)
Still, the search goes on (goes on, on, on)
I've been looking for freedom (can somebody help me? Help me)
Since I left my hometown (where's my freedom?)
I've been looking for freedom (freedom, baby, where's mine?)

I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
I've been looking so long (looking so long)

I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
I've been looking so long (looking so long)
I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
Still, the search goes on (and still, the search goes on)
I've been looking for freedom (looking for freedom)
Since I left my hometown (left my hometown)
I've been looking for freedom (been looking for freedom)
Still, it can't be found (can't be found)
