Lyrics: Glenn Hughes. The Way It Is. Freedom.

You got my pride hangin' out of my bed
You're messin' with my life so I brought my lead
Even messin' with my children
And you're screamin' at my life

Get off my back, if you want to get out of here alive

Freedom-that's what I want now
Freedom-that what I need now
Freedom-to live
Freedom-so I can give

You got my heart, split the last drink of water
You got my soul, screamin' and hollerin'
You know you hooked my girlfriend
You know the drugstore man
Well I don't need it now
Just trying to slap it out of her hand

Freedom-so I can live
Freedom-so I can give
Freedom-yeah yeah
Freedom-that's what I need

You don't have to say that you love me
If you don't mean it, you better believe
If you need me or you just wanna bleed me
You better stick in you daggers someone else
So I can leave-set me free
Right on, straight ahead
Straight up there, straight ahead

Freedom-so I can live
Freedom-so I can give...

Keep on pushing, straight ahead
Keep on pushing, straight ahead...
