Lyrics

Freedom Calls My Name (Lyrics & Music by Steve Laurie: 9/2/04)

Come-a, come on, calm me down
Ease me easy; ease my pain
Bust-a, blow my blues away
Freedom calls my name
Just a jingle ring to sing
Set my sights on higher things
Pealing bells, go let them ring
Freedom calls my name

Kids eat free, every Tuesday
Free on bail; free falling
Free parking; Free’s a band that sings ...

All right now, let’s come together, free from sin and free from hunger
Free from guilt and free from grief; free from corporate politics
Free from pain and free from war; free from clocks and bombs and swords
Free to pray, free to speak, free to roam, free to leave

Come-a, come on, calm me down
Ease me easy; ease my pain
Bust-a, blow my blues away
Freedom calls my name
Just a jingle ring to sing
Set my sights on higher things
Pealing bells, go let them ring
Freedom calls my name

Freedom fighter; free from addiction
Free estimation; free consultation
Free vote session; free elections

All right now, let’s come together, free from sin and free from hunger
Free from guilt and free from grief; free from corporate politics
Free from pain and free from war; free from clocks and bombs and swords
Free to pray, free to speak, free to roam, free to leave

Come-a, come on, calm me down
Ease me easy; ease my pain
Bust-a, blow my blues away
Freedom calls my name
Just a jingle ring to sing
Set my sights on higher things
Pealing bells, go let them ring
Freedom calls my name

Freedom calls my name
