philadelphia freedom

Singer:ike & tina turner

i used to be a rolling stone

you know if the cause was right

i'd leave to find the answer on the road

i used to be a heart beating for someone

but the times have changed

the less i say the more my work gets done

'cause i live and breathe this philadelphia freedom

from the day that i was born i've waved the flag

philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man

gave me peace of mind my daddy never had

oh philadelphia freedom shine on me

i love you

shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind

shine a light shine a light

shine a light won't you shine a light

philadelphia freedom i love you

yes i do

if you choose to you can live your life alone

some people choose the city

some other choose the good old family home

i like living easy without family ties

till the whipporwill of freedom zapped me

right between the eyes

'cause i live and breathe this philadelphia freedom

from the day that i was born i've waved the flag

philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man

gave me peace of mind my daddy never had

oh philadelphia freedom shine on me

i love you

shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind

shine a light shine a light

shine a light won't you shine a light

philadelphia freedom i love you

yes i do

philadelphia freedom shine on me

i love you

shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind

shine a light shine a light

shine a light won't you shine a light

philadelphia freedom i love you
