[Eb] [G] [C]
I told you in school about freedom, when you try to be free they never let you.
They said it's easy, nothing to it, and now the army's off to get you.
[F] 69 American terminal stasses, the air's so thick it's like a drowning in [C] molasses.
I'm sick and tired of paying these dues, [G] and I'm finally getting hip to the [E] American [C] blues.
I'm gonna say the pledge of allegiance, before they beat me bloody down at the station.
They haven't got a word out of me since I got a bit in jail's probation.
