Society's a Mansion

I almost feel free, honey, that's for sure

And I don't know what I came here for

I ain't playing games, so get off my back

If society's a mansion, I wanna live in a shack

We only had a dollar and someone's leftover food

We sat on the street together

We had nothing to lose

Not chasing that old-time wind

Chasing that old-time wind

We slept in fields together

Underneath the tall trees

Hearts as light as a feather

We had no one to please

Not chasing that old-time wind

Chasing that old-time wind

Well, I almost feel free, honey, that's for sure

And I don't know what I came here for

I ain't playing games, so get off my back

If society's a mansion, I wanna live in a shack

I can just taste the raw joy, having nothing but shoes

My guitar on my shoulder

The old man taught us the blues

I am free because I can see the wind won't be caught by me

We were playing our music right there in Santa Cruz

The homeless woman was dancing

So you kicked off your shoes

Swayed together and we were free

The wind fell right over me

Well, I almost feel free, honey, that's for sure

And I don't know what I came here for

I ain't playing games, so get off my back

If society's a mansion, I wanna live in a shack

Maybe I'll take off again

Sell my things, like I did back then

The first car that takes me in

Will be right where I'll begin

But wherever I will go

Is wherever I will be

So I'll stay right here with her

Love is real when she's with me

Well, I almost feel free, honey, that's for sure

And I don't know what I came here for

I ain't playing games, so get off my back

If society's a mansion, I wanna live in a shack

I almost feel free, honey, that's for sure

And I don't know what I came here for

But I ain't playing games, so get off my back

If society's a mansion, I wanna live in a shack

If society's a mansion, I wanna live in a shack

If society's a mansion, I wanna live in a shack
