Some people think they're free
If they get to do just what they want to do
And do nothing, nothing else
Some people want to lead their life
Others want to follow but it's okay
'Cos every man got to walk his own way
Don't be hesitating
There's no contemplating, no, there is no waiting
You got to live free, wealth ain't necessary
Some think it's to scary, quite the contrary you got to live free
Some people complicate their lives, others keep it simple
And that's a little bit closer to the truth that we all seek
We pledge allegiance to anything that takes our mind away
Freedom ain't cheap, now freedom ain't easy to get
Don't let go, some let go, don't be hesitating
There's no contemplating, no, there is no waiting
You got to live free, wealth ain't necessary
Some think it's to scary, quite the contrary you got to live free
All them things you say, all them things you do
They won't mean a thing if you don't live free
All them things we say, all them things we do
They won't mean a thing if we don't live free
