I had it tough when I was just a kid It didn't matter I thought It matter what I did I felt the doubt for what I lacked right from the It did a on my head It never touch my heart
I had just enough imagination Just to keep the faith That somehow I would think of to do When I'd get lost in a momentary weakness of All the angels came to help me through
Life blows fast changes, wind blows pages All I see is I don't need High strung tightrope walk, ticking bomb clock Scratch my name off, cut chains
I'm free, kickin' out of prison, I am free those words of wisdom, let it be Nobodys gonna put the blues of me
And in the to be the best I've done it all I've slammed the doors, I've jammed the I've laid the bricks, built the walls Nobone tell me back then why joy eluded me Kept bumping into misery Locked up deep inside of me
Took rage and I, turned that page and I my tools, went back to school, yeah And I my graduation, and I hold my Ph.d In test blues I paid those dues
I'm free, out of that prison, I am free Singin' words of wisdom, let it be Nobody's put the blues inside of me, yeah
flies by in photographs And paper and songs Here I stand in slippers Three taps me home
Yeah, I'm I'm
I'm free, kickin' out of that prison, I am Singin' words of wisdom, let it be Nobody's gonna put the inside of me, Ohh yeah
I'm I'm I'm Yeah, I'm
flies by in photographs And scraps and songs Here I in ruby slippers taps takes me home
Yeah, I'm Yeah, I'm I'm Ohh I'm
