Philadelphia Freedom

I used to be a rolling stone, you know

If a cause was right

I'd leave, to find the answer on the road

I used to be a heart beatin' for someone

But the times have changed

The less I say, the more my work gets done

'Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom

From the day that I was born, I've waved the flag

Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man, yeah

Gave me peace of mind my daddy never had

Oh, Philadelphia freedom

Shine on me, I love ya

Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind

Shine a light, shine the light

Shine the light, won't you shine the light?

Philadelphia freedom, I love ya

Yes, I do

If you choose to you can live your life alone

Some people choose the city (some people choose the city)

Some others choose the good old family home

(Some others choose the good old family home)

I like living easy without family ties ('cause it's easy)

'Til the whip or will of freedom zapped me, right between the eyes

'Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom

From the day that I was born, I've waved the flag

Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man, mmh-mmh

Gave me peace of mind my daddy never had

Oh, Philadelphia freedom

Shine on me, I love ya

Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind

Shine a light, shine the light

Shine the light, won't you shine the light?

Philadelphia freedom, I love ya

Yes, I do

Oh, Philadelphia freedom

Shine on me, I love ya

Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind, mmh

Shine a light, shine the light

Shine the light, won't you shine the light?

Philadelphia freedom, I love ya

You know, I love you, yeah

You know, I love you

Yes, I do! (Philadelphia freedom)

I love you, yes I do!

(Philadelphia freedom) you know that I love you

Yes, I do! (Philadelphia) oh (freedom)

Don't you know that I love you?

Yes, I do! (Philadelphia freedom)

Don't you know that I love you?

Yes, I do! (Philadelphia) oh, oh (freedom)

Don't you know that I love you?
