1. Strophe:
One Morning In June
Some Twenty Years Ago
I Was Born A Rich Man's Son
I Had Everything That Money Could Buy,
But Freedom I Had None
Refrain:
I've Been Looking For Freedom
I've Been Looking So Long
I've Been Looking For Freedom
Still The Search Goes On
I've Been Looking For Freedom
Since I Left My Home Town
I've Been Looking For Freedom
Still It Can't Be Found
2. Strophe:
I Headed Down The Track
My Baggage On My Back
I Left The City Far Behind
Walking Down That Road
With My Heavy Load
Trying To Find Some Ease Of Mind
3. Strophe:
Father Said: "You'll Be Sorry, Son,
If You Leave Your Home This Way
And When You Realize
The Freedom Money Buys
You'll Come Running Home Someday"
(Refrain)
Bridge:
I Made A Lot Of Dues
Had Plenty To Lose
Travelling Across The Land
Worked On A Farm,
Got Some Muscle In My Arms
But Still I'm Not A Self-made Man
I Feel The Run For Many Years To Come
I'll Be Searching Door To Door
And Given Some Time
Some Day I'm Gonna Find
The Freedom [freedom, Freedom] I've Been Searching For
(Refrain)
