Lyrics

Freedom don't come easy, babe When your spirit's flyin' up among the clouds And when you're faced with the wise man's road You gotta know where to go Sun and the stars are a travelin' man's companion Leadin' the way for his journey East and west, wherever you go, mm Leadin' the way The first to come Showin' the way for his children Now it's up to you Do you know you're pullin' through Man, it's not easy and you know it Children in a happy place They're always smiling Showin' all their love with no deception Treatin' each other like brothers and sisters do, yeah, yeah Children in a real good place, they're always tryin' Jumpin' and playin' in the middle of the afternoon Just havin' a ball, don't worry at all, yeah Leadin' the way The first to come Showin' the way for his children Now it's up to you Do you know you're pullin' through Man, it's not easy and you know it Children in a happy place They're always smiling Showin' all their love with no deception Treatin' each other like brothers and sisters do, yeah, yeah Children in a real good place, they're always tryin' Jumpin' and playin' in the middle of the afternoon Just havin' a ball, don't worry at all, yeah
