I'm Free

The wind blows fast The wind blows free The wind blows hard Through the weeping willow tree Sleepin' in the shade Of the leaves in the bower Creepin' to a maiden And it's treason in the tower I'm free, I'm free, free, I'm free The waves roll long The waves roll high The waves roll on To their meeting with the sky I'm swimmin' with the daughters Of the life-givin' ocean Livin' in the waters With the rhythm and the notion I'm free, I'm free, free, I'm free You can't take that away from me You can't take a mermaid from the sea You can't take the honey from the honey bee Like the pollen that he carries To the daisies on the prairies I'm free, I'm free, I'm free The rain falls clear The rain falls true The rain falls sheer To shape the early morning dew I'm rolling in the dampness Of the early morning hours Growing with the gladness Of the surely forming flowers I'm free, I'm free, free, I'm free You can't take that away from me You can't take a mermaid from the sea You can't take the honey from the honey bee Like the pollen that he carries To the daisies on the prairies I'm free, I'm free, I'm free No you can't take that away from me You can't take a mermaid from the sea You can't take the honey from the honey bee Like the pollen that he carries To the daisies on the prairies I'm free, I'm free, I'm free
