Roger Miller
Free At Last (1985 Original Broadway Cast)
[Jim]
I wish, by golly, I
Could spread my wings and fly
And let this grounded soul be free for just a little while
To be like eagles when
They ride upon the wind
And taste the sweetest taste of freedom for my soul

Then I'd be free at last
Free at last
Great God Almighty, I'd be free at last

To let my feelings lie
Where harm can not come by
And hurt this always hurtin' heart that needs to rest awhile
I wish by golly I
Could spread my wings and fly
And taste the sweetest taste of freedom for my soul

[Jim and The Slaves]
Then I'd be free at last (Free at last)
Free at last (Free at last)
Great God Almighty, I'd be free at last (Free at last)

I'd be free at last (Free at last)
I'd be free at last (Free at last)
Great God Almighty, I'd be free at last
I'd be free at last (Free at last)
Oh lord, I'd be free at last (Free at last)
Great God Almighty, I'd be free at last
(Great God Almighty)

I'd be free at last (Free at last)
I'd be free at last (I'd be free, free, free at last)
Great God Almighty I'd be free
(I'd be free, I'd be free)
At last
