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, yeah
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 others choose the good old family home
I like living easy without family ties
Till the whippoorwill 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
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
She know, I love you
She know, I love you, yes I do
Yes, I do Philadelphia freedom
She know, I love you
Yes, I do Philadelphia freedom
She know, I love you
Yes, I do Philadelphia freedom
She know, I love you
Yes, I do Philadelphia freedom
She know, I love you
Yes, I do Philadelphia freedom
She know, I love you
Yes, I do Philadelphia freedom
She know, I love you
