[Verse 1]
Magnavox in the living room
CBS and NBC
Closed on 10 in the backyard
Hockey game playing in the street
Deck of cards in the kitchen
Cool breeze from our screen door
Grandma reading love letters Grandpa wrote her in the war

[Chorus]
Free
All those memories, free
Didn’t cost us anything
All the shiny cars, perfect yards, chasing store bought dreams
We work so hard to have it all, when all the things we want are free

[Verse 2]
Got your accent from your home town
Sense of humor from your dad
Get your green eyes from your mother
God knows you can't buy that
They'll charge you for a six pack
But your friends are always there
A few extra bucks in the offer plate
Even though you can't buy a prayer
[Chorus]
Free
All those memories, free
Didn’t cost us anything
All the shiny cars, perfect yards, chasing store bought dreams
We work so hard to have it all, when all the things we want are free

[Chorus]
Free
All those memories, free
Didn’t cost us anything
All the shiny cars, perfect yards, chasing store bought dreams
We work so hard to have it all, when all the things we want are free

[Outro]
Free
Free
