I used to be a rolling stone You
know if the cause was right I'd
leave to find the answer on the road I
used to be a heart beating for someone But
the times have changed The less
I say the more my work gets done 'Cause
I live and breathe this Philadelphia
freedom From the day that I was
born I've waved the flag Philadelphia
freedom took me knee-high to a man Yeah
gave me peace of mind my daddy never
had Oh Philadelphia freedom shine
on me, I love you Shine a light
through the eyes of the ones left
behind Shine a light shine a light Shine
a light won't you shine a light Philadelphia
freedom I love you, yes I do If
you choose to you can live your life
alone Some people choose the city Some
others choose the good old family
home I like living easy without
family ties Till the whippoorwill
of freedom zapped me Right between
the eyes
