Free man

I sold the house, I sold my car
I took a job at Milly´s bar
I met a man who was running from the government
Ah he wants to be a free man yeah
Ah he wants to be a free man yeah

He took me out to his campsite
I met his friends
They seemed alright
Until I noticed everybody seemed real upright
They just wanna be a free man now
They just wanna be a free man now

Pardon me man
But who´s your mother
Oh and didn´t she say
You should love one another

He showed me how to load a piece
To shoot it straight between the teeth
And the next thing I know I´ve fallen in love
And I´m living with a free man now
Now I´m cooking for a free man now

He took me out in his old truck
He told me anyone who ain´t white sucks
That´s when I realized I´d made a big mistake
Oh I´m running from the free man now
Oh I´m running from the free man now

Oh pardon me man
Oh who´s your mother
And didn´t she teach you
She should love one another

Late one night I snuck away
To use the phone so I could say
I´d appreciate a little bit of government
Cause I´m married to a free man now
Cause I´m married to a free man now

Well I´m married to a free man
Well I´m married to a free man
I think I´m running from a free man
I think I´m running from a free man
