[Verse 1]
Meet my lady every morning half past nine
When the bells begin to ring
Looking out the window down the road
And I see the same damn thing

[Chorus]
Three days to get it on
Three days to get it off
And three more days to die
And I'm six feet down
And I'm asking the good Lord up in heaven
Why, why, why

[Verse 2]
You can't find all the answers
If you're always standing in the rain
And once the chance goes by
It just might not come around again

[Chorus]
Three days to build it up
And three days to tear it down
And three more days to die
And I'm still six feet down
Still wondering, praying and asking
Why, why, why
[Bridge]
We got to have a reason and you know it
We got to have a reason and you know it, you know it
Oh, we got to have a reason and you know it
Hey we got to have a reason and you know it
You know it, you know it, you know it
Freedom, paint me a picture
Freedom, paint me a picture
Freedom, paint me a picture
Show it to me
Freedom, paint me a picture
Freedom, paint me a picture
Show it to me, right now
Freedom, paint me a picture
Where are you freedom?

[Verse 3]
Meet the lady every morning half past nine
When the bells begin to ring
Looking out the window down the road
And I see the same damn thing

[Chorus]
Three days to get it on
And three days to get it off
And three more days to die
And I'm six feet down
And I'm asking the good Lord up in heaven
Why, why, why
