Junior Brown – Freeborn Man Lyrics

Freeborn Man Lyrics

I was born in the Southland
Some odd years ago
I left home for the first time
When I was four years old

I'm a freeborn man
My home is on my back
Well, I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad track

Well, I got a wore-out guitar
I carry in an old tote sack
Well, I hocked it about 200 times
But I always get it back

I'm a freeborn man
My home is on my back
Well, I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad track

You may not like my appearance
You may not like my song
You may not like the way I talk
But you like the way I'm gone

I'm a freeborn man
My home is on my back
Well, I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad track

I got a girl in Cincinnati
Got a woman in San Antone
Well, I always loved the girl next door
But anyplace is home

I'm a freeborn man
My home is on my back
Well, I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad track

I'm a freeborn man
My home is on my back
Well, I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad track
