Freedom Lyrics - The Road And The Radio - Kenny Chesney

People always tell me their life story 

Love they've lost, their taste of glory 

He sat next to me at the counter in the diner 

Said I used to be Wall Street but this is much finer 

Oh yeah 

He had a leather look on a steel horse Harley 

And a dark-eyed girlfriend he called Charlie 

He looked a little lost walkin' out the door 

But I think I knew what he was lookin' for 

Freedom, sweet freedom 

I gassed 'er up, climbed back in my cab 

To my wife I'm a husband, to my kids I'm a dad 

To the credit card companies I'm just another sucker 

To the IRS, a long-haul trucker 

Mmmm yeah

Some say that freedom's the power to do what one pleases 

You can live like the devil or hold on to Jesus 

I found the one thing I was born to do 

And girl that's why I'm runnin' back to you 

Freedom, sweet freedom 

He climbed up in my truck with his green duffel bag 

I knew he was a soldier 'cause I saw his dog tags 

We talked about it, we cried about it 

Then a steel horse Harley came roarin' on past 

I knew it was Charlie hangin' on real fast 

We talked about it, we laughed about it 

Through the joy and pain that living brings 

Don't we all want the same thing 

Freedom, sweet freedom

It's what the junkie needs that the needle can't give 

The oppressed and forgotten are praying for it 

It's what the brave and courageous are fightin' for 

An open sail on a distant shore 

Freedom
