Bruce Cockburn Free To Be Lyrics

Free To Be Lyrics

Got no social graces

Never know my place

Ine thing I am sure of

You can't judge a man by his race

Birth don't come easy

Freedom
doesn't come cheap

Rules and worlds get swept away

While you waste
your time in sleep 



Grow up you

Grow up me

Grown
together

Free to be 



There's music in the forest

Children laugh in the school yard

On the skid row of the spirit

Hear the ranting of the Western Guard

Why don't you cool out

Can
it be so hard

to love yourself without thinking

someone else holds a
lower card 



Grow up you

Grow up me

Grown together

Free to be 



Wired to the switchboard

Always on the
move

Things we love to cling to

But there's nothing we can prove

You can only deal with

What's before your face

And the life
you're given's no use at all

If you burn it up in hate 



Grow
up you

Grow up me

Grown together

Free to be
