Free Ain't Free Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Her husband died in 1985
He worked at General Motors off 285
He saved their money and they bought a home
Lived there for twenty years or so
Now she's free of the past, free of the grief
Free to live her life in peace
But the man next door, he built a house
And the man next door, he built a house
And now, like us, she's upside down

[Chorus]
Free ain't free, baby, don't you know
Free ain't free, baby, don't let go
Free ain't free, free aren't free
Free ain't free, don't you see

[Verse 2]
Welcome to the Land of the Free
Where the buffaloes roam and the antelope leap
Free to think, free to write
Free to protest, free to unite
Free to be you and me (Remember that?) Free to see what I want to see
But somehow I always pay the price

[Chorus]
Free ain't free, baby, don't you lie
Free ain't free, baby, don't you know
Free ain't free if you try to let go
Free ain't free, baby, don't you lie
Free ain't free, why are you surprised
Free ain't free, free ain't free

[Guitars]

[Outro]
Free ain't free
Free ain't free to me
Free ain't free to live
Free ain't free to see
Free ain't free to me
Ah you gotta be

Free ain't free
Free ain't free (Free)
Free ain't free (Free)
Free ain't free (Free)
Free ain't free (Free)
Free ain't free (Free)

Free ain't free
Free ain't free
