When I was young and my spirit was free to ride
No one I knew had anything to hide
But all of this is changing with the days
I walked into a disillusioned maze
Those lazy, crazy, mellow, yellow days
Are lost in a so-called sophisticated haze
And I can still remember being care-free
And no one knows it better than me
'Cause I'm a free spirit
And I'm looking for a place to run
A free spirit on the wind
And a free spirit needs to be complete
I've got to have the world at my feet
Now my time has come and I'm dealing with here and now
And I'm gonna have to take care of it somehow
And I don't intend to wait for the cover of night
The only way I know is to get up and fight
'Cause I'm a free spirit
And I'm looking for a place to run
A free spirit on the wind
And a free spirit needs to be complete
I've got to have the world at my feet
I'm a free spirit
And I'm looking for a place to run
A free spirit on the wind
And a free spirit needs to be complete
I've got to have the world at my feet
