Fifty States of Freedom Lyrics


Don’t know who’s been driving my car
But he sure is good
I’ve been sleeping on the job, sweet mama
And it’s been such a long, long, long time since I’ve seen home
Lonely people in Holiday Inns
I’ve been looking over fifty states of my freedom
And I’m dying to make it home again
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of ...
Mr. Every Daily Jones with a face full of gin
Sweet mama tranquil on her pills now she’s high
Baby’s on the long, long, long run
He’s strung out again

Lonely people in Holiday Inns
I’ve been looking over fifty states of my freedom
And I’m dying to make it home again
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of freedom
United States of my freedom
Don’t know who’s been driving my car
But he sure is good
I’ve been sleeping on the job, sweet mama
And it’s been such a long, long, long time since I’ve seen home
Watching the electrical signs telling me what to do
Turn it right and turn it left now they all say
Better keep your eyes open wide
You’re going the wrong way
Lonely people in Holiday Inns
I’ve been looking over fifty states of my freedom
And I’m dying to make it home again
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of freedom
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom
Lonely people in Holiday Inns
I’ve been looking over fifty states of my freedom
And I’m dying to make it home again
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of freedom
Fifty states of freedom
United States of my freedom
Talk about Freedom

Brewer & Shipley were a folk rock duo of the late 1960s through 1970s, consisting of singer-songwriters Mike Brewer and Tom Shipley. They were known for their intricate guitar work, vocal harmonies and socially conscious lyrics, which reflected the concerns of their generation -- especially the Vietnam War, and the struggles for personal and political freedom. Their biggest hit was the song "One Toke Over The Line" from their 1970 album Tarkio. They also had two other singles which made the Billboard charts: "Tarkio Road" (1970) and "Shake Off The Demon" (1971).
