Introduction Lyrics - Arlo Guthrie

words and music by Arlo Guthrie 

Loose the bonds that tie me 

Let the world I live in let me 

Take these chains from off my thumb 

Let the world just know you've come 

Everyone is thinking that there must be a way 

Come closer to me a babe, and hear what I say 

Lay down beside me, listen to my song 

It's something other than it's right or it's wrong 

Do you ever seem so happy and feel so sad? 

Feel that someone that you never had
