A-That's Freedom - Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, John Riley, Dennis Irwin & Ralph Lalama

Freedom is a voice Freedom is a song Freedom is a spirit For the people who are strong Freedom is a city Freedom is a land Freedom is the courage To take another hand

(Oh-oh, oh-oh) woo! (Oh-oh, oh-oh) Sunset through a windshield I can see it now like a picture in a frame (Picture in a frame, oh-oh, oh-oh) Blue jeans and t-shirts, who we were We wore it like a name (like a name) I wish I could go back to those days When the town was the whole world And love was the girl next door Soundtrack was a song in the dark I miss those days when our dreams Were there for chasin' But time was better wasted We were summer young and livin' for a Friday And freedom was a highway (oh-oh, oh-oh) Freedom was a highway (oh-oh, oh-oh) Barbwire on a fencepost with a crosswind On a road no one was on (no one was on) Yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Five deep with our hands up Just singin' along to a hip-hop song I wish I could rewind and replay When the town was the whole world And love was the girl next door Soundtrack was a song in the dark I miss those days when our dreams Were there for chasin' But time was better wasted We were summer young and livin' for a Friday And freedom was a highway Freedom was a highway When you're 17 and drivin' You don't think about the road runnin' out No, no, no, no You just keep your eyes on that horizon 'Cause you're wrapped up in now (ooh, ooh) Hey (ooh yeah, ooh yeah) woo! I wish I could go back to those days When the town was the whole world And love was the girl next door Soundtrack was a song in the dark I miss those days when our dreams Were there for chasin' But time was better wasted We were summer young and livin' for a Friday And freedom was a highway (freedom was a highway) Freedom was a highway, baby (oh yeah) And freedom was a highway (freedom was a highway) Freedom was a highway (oh-oh, oh-oh)
