Hey wouldn't you wanna know
everywhere that river flows to right now
I can show you how
Someday you might wanna go
someday you got nothin to show for all your pain
for all your change
I ain't saying its the only way
but wouldn't you like to know
How it feels to live like a free man
to give when theres nothing in your hand
to run like only the river can,
like a free man
You've only so may roads to choose
sooner or later the ones you loose
they all look the same
Yea someday you might feel the need
someday when you're tired of bleeding for someone else
your gonna want it for yourself
no I ain't saying it's the only way
but wouldn't you like to know
How it feels to live like a free man
to give when theres nothing in your hand
to run like only the river can,
like a free man
Yea I ain't saying its the only way,
no I ain't saying its the only way
wouldn't you like to know
How it feels to live like a free man
to give when theres nothing in your hand
to run like only the river can
like a free man
a free man
a free man
a free man
