I wish I knew how it would feel to be free I wish I could break all the chains holding me I wish I could say all the things I wanna say Say 'em loud, say 'em clear For the whole wide world to hear I wish I could share all the love that's in my heart Remove all the bars that keeps us apart I wish you could know what it means to be me Then you'd see and agree That every man should be free I wish I could give all I'm longin' to give I wish I could live like I'm longin' to live I wish I could do all the things that I can do Though I'm way over due, I'll be starting anew Haha Come on, son Play that thing, play that thing (come on now, yeah) You soundin' good, boy Oh yeah Woo, that's it there He pickin' that thing (oh, he pickin' it now) He pickin', aw, he pickin' now (play that, play that, play that) Aw, yeah Oh yeah (yes sir, aw yeah), aw yeah, yes sir Well, I wish I could be like a bird in the sky How sweet it would be if I found I could fly I would soar to the sun and look down at the sea And I'd sing 'cause I know We'd sing 'cause we know (I'd sing because I know) We'd sing 'cause we know (I would like to know) We'd sing 'cause we know (how it feels, I would like to know) We'd sing 'cause we know (how it feels) We'd sing 'cause we know (I would like to break the chains) We'd sing 'cause we know (holding me, I would like to break) We'd sing 'cause we know (break the chains that's holding me) We'd sing 'cause we know We'd sing 'cause we know (somebody tell me) We'd sing 'cause we know (how it feels) We'd sing 'cause we know (what?) We'd sing 'cause we know (go 'head) We'd sing 'cause we know (oh, I wish I knew how) We'd sing 'cause we know (how it feels) We'd sing 'cause we know (I wanna know how it feels) We'd sing 'cause we know (can somebody tell me how it feels?) We'd sing 'cause we know (oh, I wanna know it feels to be free) We'd sing 'cause we know (I wanna know it feels to be free) We'd sing 'cause we know (I wanna, wanna be free, hey, hey) We'd sing 'cause we know (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey) And we'd sing 'cause we know (yeah, yeah) How it feels to be free
