I count my blessings, I am a daughter Of the Land of Opportunity I want for nothing, no one can stop me Or take away my liberties I've got a flag in my backyard And a gun in my hand And every night I thank the Good Lord For this great land 'Cause we are free from the cradle to the grave So free of meaning and we like it that way Yeah we are free, we played it all so smart 'Cause ain't nobody gonna bother stopping What we never did start Yeah we are free Can't see the forest for the skyscraper Locked in cold war with the sun Which one will kill us: hate or indifference? Or has all the killing been done? Well I don't know why I'm asking 'Cause I'm well aware That while we're free to wonder We're more free not to care 'Cause we are free from the cradle to the grave So free of meaning and we like it that way Yeah we are free, we played it all so smart 'Cause ain't nobody gonna bother stopping What we never did start Yeah we are free Now we're so full of freedom that we may just well Split down the middle like the Liberty Bell There's just too many lies that we're too free to tell We're all free to die, we're free to go to hell . Yeah we are free from the cradle to the grave So free of meaning and we like it that way Yeah we are free, we played it all so smart 'Cause ain't nobody gonna bother stopping What we never did start Yeah we are free How does it feel to be free? Ain't nobody gonna bother, 'body gonna bother stopping now .
