Freedom Song

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Listen while I tell the hard luck story 'Bout a man named Jack McDuff He believed in the God and the glory But he just wasn't tough enough [Chorus] I believe in the freedom song Long live liberty I believe in the freedom song And I'll choose my own destiny [Verse 2] Well, they took him and they beat him Underneath that old hangin' tree Sayin', "Jack, you must die What will your last words be?" [Chorus] Jack, he hung his head back "Long live liberty I believe in the freedom song Doesn't matter what you do to me" [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] With a rope around his neck, they left him hangin' High on that old hangin' tree On her knees, his wife was screamin' "Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy" [Chorus] I believe in the freedom song Long live-a the liberty I believe in that freedom song Doesn't matter what you do to me (Doesn't matter what you do to me)
