Deburgh Chris Leather On My Shoes Lyrics

Leather On My Shoes Lyrics

I've got leather on my shoes,

 And I've got a dream to live,

 There is nothing left to lose,

 So I'm going,

 I've got a suitcase here in my hand,

 And I've got a hungry heart,

 And I'm going to join the millions

 There before me, on the freedom road.

 

 No one's coming to my door,

 And all my friends are gone,

 There's no work here anymore,

 It's deserted,

 And though I know I hate to leave,

 From this land that I love,

 There's a new tomorrow waiting,

 Yes it's shining on the freedom road,

 On the freedom road;

 

 Oh sometimes it's going to be lonely,

 Sometimes it will be sad,

 But I've got to keep on going,

 Until I hold that promised land

 In the palm of my hand.

 

 Nothing ventured, nothing gained or won

 Without a hard fight,

 We would never reach the sun

 Without trying,

 And when we're a million miles from home,

 Out in the starry night,

 We will see we're not alone

 In the heavens, out on freedom road,

 Out on freedom road,

 

 Out on freedom road... out on freedom road.
