Ohio Players - I Want To Be Free

One day child, I won't have to listen to your lies
On that day, I'll be able to make up my own mind
You know, I think I done finally realized
And now I think I can put you out of my life

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free

And one morning
I won't be afraid to leave
And all those things that you told me
I never could conceive

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free

You don't know how it makes me feel child
To be able to walk away from your smile
And I'm gonna be alright, after awhile
I think the Lord done gave me a strength now

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free

One day I'm gonna be free honey
And nothing can make me stay, not even your money
I know you're gonna think that I'm acting funny
But I'm getting away from you honey

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
One day child, I won't have to listen to your lies
On that day, I'll be able to make up my own mind
You know, I think I done finally realized
And now I think I can put you out of my life

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free

And one morning
I won't be afraid to leave
And all those things that you told me
I never could conceive

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free

You don't know how it makes me feel child
To be able to walk away from your smile
And I'm gonna be alright, after awhile
I think the Lord done gave me a strength now

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free

One day I'm gonna be free honey
And nothing can make me stay, not even your money

I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to run away
I'm gonna be free I want to be free to speak my mind, all the time

I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
