Low Down Freedom

(álbum: We Had It All - 1974)

Longhaired young girl, here beside me
Fitting my body, warm my mind
Sleeping quiet, never knowing
That tomorrow should be one more thing I'm gonna leave behind

Like them big wheels, I'll be rolling
Like them rivers, I'm gonna flow to sea
'Cause I'd rather leave here knowing
That I made a fool of love before I made a fool of me

Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'd ever lose
You're as empty as my pockets
From the top of where you start down to the bottom of my shoes

Open highway, lonesome windblow
Tell me something I don't know
Wrap them woman's arms around me
Tell me why I'm gonna be where I don't really want to go

Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'd ever lose
You're as empty as my pockets
And you're colder than the water that keeps running down my shoes
