"Low Down Freedom" lyrics

"Low Down Freedom"

Long-haired young girl here beside me
Fit my body, wore my mind
Sleeping quiet, never knowing
That tomorrow she'll be one more thing I'm gonna leave behind

Like them big wheels, I'll be rolling
Like them rivers, gonna flow to sea
'Cause I'd rather leave here knowing
That I made a fool of love before it made a fool of me

Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'll ever lose
You're as empty as my pockets
From the top of where you start down to the bottom of my boot

Open highway, lonesome wind blows
Tell me something I don't know
Wrapped in woman arms around me
Tell me why I'm gonna leave when I don't really wanna go

Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'll ever lose
You're as empty as my pockets
From the top of where you start down to the bottom of my boot

Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'll ever lose
You're as empty as my pockets
And you're colder than the water that keeps soaking through my boot
