Freedom's Road
John Mellencamp

I'm navigating my way down freedom's road

Trying to make my way back home

I got my foot to the floor

But she must need bleeding

This car just don't want to roll

Freedom's road must be under construction

Sometimes you wonder what kind of freedom they're talking

If you're here looking for the devil

You'll find him on freedom's road

Freedom's road, freedom's road

If you want to take a ride

Well you've got to pay the toll

Freedom's road, freedom's road

If you're looking for the devil

He's out there on freedom's road

Sometimes there's rape sometimes there'll be murder

Sometimes just darkness everywhere

No passing signs and barbed wire fences

Misinformation but no one cares

Freedom's road can get narrow

No one wants to know you

If there's no pork in your barrel

If you're here looking for the devil

He's out there on freedom's road

Freedom's road, freedom's road

If you want to take a ride

Well you've got to pay the toll

Freedom's road, freedom's road

If you're looking for the devil

He's out there on freedom's road

You can drop your bombs

You can beat the people senseless

But that won't get you anywhere

Hide your agendas behind public consensus

And say that this world just ain't fair

Freedom's road is a promise to the people

You'll never fool us now

With all your lying and cheating

If you're here wanting a crown in heaven

It's out there on freedom's road

Freedom's road, freedom's road

If you want to take a ride

Well you've got to pay the toll

Freedom's road, freedom's road

If you're looking for the devil

He's out there on freedom's road
