The Peppermint Trolley Company - Free lyrics

Standing in the street he breathes the anger and the pain Tortured by the heat with hatred rushing through his veins He talks of summer days and cowards' pa**ive ways Must he bend his knees or can he really be free? Free, free Bell rings at the school and so his children take their place Teach them by the rule that no one hates an honest face While just outside the room in asphalt ghetto gloom A child is born to see that he might never be free Free, free Could he and I live as friends truly? Or is this song nothing, really just a lie to him The fact that nothing's being done is the circumstance The time is short and we may never get a chance No chance Springtime in the air and sparrows teach their young to fly I sit in dumb despair with tears of anguish in my eyes The word of love is true, and it would surely do If we could only see a man just has to be free Free, free Free, free, free Free, free, free Free, free, free Free
