I headed down the track
My baggage on my back
I left the city far behind
Walkin' down the road
With my heavy load
Tryin' to find
Some peace of mind
Father said you'll be sorry, son
If you leave your home this way
And when you realize
The freedom money buys
You'll come running home some day
Refrain: I've been looking for freedom
I've been looking so long
I've been looking for freedom
Still the search goes on
I've been looking for freedom
Since I left my home town
