I used to be a rolling stone
You know if the cause was right
I'd leave to find the answer on the road.
Iused to be a heart beating for someone
But the times have changed
The less I say the more my work gets done.

'Cause I leave and breathe this philadelphia freedom
From the day that I was born I've waved the flag
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Yeah! Gave me peace of mind my daddy never had.
Oh philadelphia freedom shine on me, I love oyu
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine a light shine a light
Shine a light won't you shine a light
Philadelphia freedom I love you, yes I do.

If you choose to you can live your life alone
Some people choose the cood old family home
I like living easy without family ties
'til the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me
Right between the eyes.
