Darrell Scott - I Wanna Be Free lyrics

Sally took a ride with my kid brother Made her sister swear that she wouldn't tell her mother Drove to the desert, got a room with a pool outside And a truck stop right next door They drank sweet wine with the sheets pulled down Watching color TV without the sound Oh, brother brought Sally to a place She'd never been before (I wanna be free, Lord, I wanna be free) They drove back home in the light of day She was sitting beside him holding hands all the way Brother said, "I will talk to your mom If you want me to Do you think it'll do any good, Sally?" She had him drop her off at the side of the house When she walked through the door Momma woke up on the couch And started hitting and screaming Little sister just left the room (I wanna be free, Lord, I wanna be free) You can't touch me You can't reach me There is nothing You can teach me Sally packed her bags in the middle of the night And hugged her little sister 'neath the front porch light And she watched as Sally and my brother just drove away Into the heat of the night She went back inside and lay down on her bed With a vision of her future Running 'round in her head And she held to her pillow 'Cause she thought that she would blow away (I wanna be free, Lord, I wanna be free) You can't touch me You can't reach me There is nothing You can teach me I know better You don't love me, but I am worthy I'm somebody
