Freedom Ain`t What It Use To Be Lyrics

Freedom Ain`t What It Use To Be lyrics

Kerouac used to walk these roads 
(I know he did, I know he
did) 
Miles of type strewn behind him so 
(He knew how to live, he
knew how to live) 
Throw the arching for a perfect dream 
(I know
he did, I know he did) 
Red pills, blue pills, white pills,
green 
(He knew how to live, he knew how to live) 

Look before
you leap 
Watch the company you keep 
Never fall
asleep 
'Cause the ocean's too deep 
Look before you
leap 
Watch the company you keep 
Never fall
asleep 

Freedom ain't what it used to be 
Ain't what it ought
to be 
It used to be so free 
No, freedom ain't what it ought to
be 
Ain't what it used to be 
I can't even think 

The art
of war was written in blood 
(I know it was, I know it was) 
There
is no peace not born of love 
(Just because, just because) 
I'm not
sure who to kiss, you can't even fuck 
(It's just my luck, it's just my
luck) 
I'm riding home on the wings of a dove 
(Just because, just
because) 

Freedom ain't what it used to be 
Ain't what it ought
to be 
It used to be so free 
No, freedom ain't what it ought to
be 
Ain't what it used to be 
You know, I can't even
think 

Look before you leap 
Watch the company you
keep 
Never fall asleep 
'Cause the ocean's too deep 
Look
before you leap 
Watch the company you keep 
Never fall asleep
