Lyrics

[Verse 1] Blast off, bang-bang, power trip Just to set the world afire God looked down an unapproving frown Said, "Get those boys up higher They got nothing more than what they're living Out where freedom ringing" As I rolled down the window to flick my butt I could hear him singing [Chorus] Freedom rings Into your heart Tears you apart from the start Freedom, freedom rings Right to your soul Taking a hold, so it goes Freedom rings Into your heart Tears you apart from the start Freedom, freedom rings Right to the soul Taking a hold Hear them singing: "Freedom ringing" Freedom will ring [Verse 2] Tailspin, down, down, down we go On the darker side of night We held on tight, like flags in a hurricane Waiting for the daylight We had nothing more than what we were My fingernails were clinging As I tightened my grip, caught my breath I still heard him singing: "Hang on tight; it's all right Out where freedom's ringing" [Chorus] Freedom rings Into your heart Tears you apart from the start Freedom, freedom rings Right to your soul Taking a hold, so it goes Freedom rings Into your heart Tears you apart from the start Freedom, freedom rings Right to the soul Taking a hold Hear them singing: "Freedom ringing" Freedom will ring [Bridge 1] Here we go, no one knows Out where freedom ringin' Hang on tight; it's all right Out where freedom ringin' Here we go, no one knows Out where freedom ringin' Hang on tight; it's all right Hang on tight; it's all right [Bridge 2] The beaches blew the warning The boys faced her on the sand She's a goddamn demon, she's an evil bitch And she slaps with an iron hand Now, we ain't ones for running And we don't know right from wrong So, we stared down into the eye of the beast Stood fucking Jersey strong, that's right [Bridge 3] "She's coming, she's a hurricane She's ringing," all the children say Come on down when ya hear the sound Where the sky will meet the water Come on down, we always been around Even through the slaughter "She's coming, she's a hurricane She's ringing," all the children say [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Freedom rings Into your heart Tears you apart from the start Freedom, freedom rings Right to your soul Taking a hold, so it goes Freedom rings Into your heart Tears you apart from the start Freedom, freedom rings Right to the soul Taking a hold Hear them singing: "Freedom ringing" Freedom will ring
