Bird of Freedom
Tift Merritt

Where were you when the plane went down?
When the president was born? When they founded this town?
She was standing out back, she could hardly hear the band
My bird of freedom with a gun in her hand
My bird of freedom with a gun in her hand

Have you seen the parade in her eye?
Hungry and hot like the Fourth of July
What is it about her that you don't understand?
My bird of freedom with a gun in her hand
My bird of freedom with a gun in her hand

Don't look back now, boys
As she waves and gets small
With those sweet wings that beat
Those sweet wings at night
How those sweet wings fight
It ain't no choice at all

Are you cool and dry? Are you keeping warm?
Shadowboxing this thunderstorm
Write me and tell me where we fit in what is planned
Me and my bird of freedom with a gun in her hand
My bird of freedom with a gun in her hand
