Free like the river
Floating free through infinity
Free to be sure of
What I am and who I need not be
Free from all worries
Worries prey on oneself's troubled mind
Freer than the clock hands
Tickin' way the time
Freer than the meaning of free that man defines
(Backing Choir: I'm talking 'bout!)
Life (Backing Choir:Life [bad word] through me
Till I feel my father God has called

Free to be nowhere
But in every place I need to be
Freer than a sunbeam
Shining through my soul
Free from feelin' heat or knowing bitter cold
Free like the river
(Backing Choir: Free!)
Free like the river
(Backing Choir: Free!)
Ahhh, I am free

Backing Choir:
I'm free like the river
I'm free like the mountains
I'm free like the river
Flowing through my life

I'm free h-e-y like the river
Aaaahhh I am free
Free
Free
I am free
Free like the river
Aaaahhh I am free
