I Want To Be Free Lyrics By Ohio Players

    one day child i won’t have to listen to your lies
    on that day i’ll be able to make up my own mind
    you know i think i done finally realized
    and now i think i can put you out of my life

    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to speak my mind all the time

    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free

    and one morning
    i won’t be afraid to leave
    and all those things that you told me
    i never could conceive

    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to speak my mind all the time

    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free

    you don’t know how it makes me feel child
    to be able to walk away from your smile
    and i’m gonna be alright after awhile
    i think the lord done gave me a strength now

    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to speak my mind all the time

    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free

    one day i’m gonna be free honey
    and nothing can make me stay not even your money
    i know you’re gonna think that i’m acting funny
    but i’m getting away from you honey

    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to run away
    i’m gonna be free i want to be free to speak my mind all the time

    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free
    i want to be free
