[Intro]
I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
'Cause I would really, really love to stick around

[Verse 1]
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be
(Didn't know what I wanted to be)
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me

[Pre-Chorus]
I think there's something you should know
(I think it's time I told you so)
There's something deep inside of me
(There's someonе else I've got to bе)
Take back your picture in the frame
(Take back your singing in the rain)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
[Chorus]
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
You got to give what you take

[Verse 2]
Heaven knows we sure had some fun, boy
What a kick, just a buddy and me
(What a kick, just a buddy and me)
We had every big-shot, good-time band on the run, boy
We were living in a fantasy

[Pre-Chorus]
I think there's something you should know
(I think it's time I stopped the show)
There's something deep inside of me
(There's someone I forgot to be)
Take back your picture in the frame
(Don't think that I'll be back again)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

[Chorus]
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
You got to give what you take
[Bridge]
Well, it looks like the road to Heaven
But it feels like the road to Hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass, they notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
(That's what you get)
That's what you get
(I say that's what you get)
That's what you get
(For changing your mind)
That's what you get for changing your mind
(That's what you get)
That's what you get
(And after all this time)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

[Chorus]
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
You got to give what you take
Freedom (I won't let you down)
Freedom (I will not give you up)
Freedom (Gotta have some faith in the sound)
You got to give what you take (It's the one good thing that I've got)
Freedom (I won't let you down)
Freedom (So please don't give me up)
Freedom ('Cause I would really, really love)
You got to give what you take (To stick around)
