(Lovett/Peacock/Clyne)

I see the birds up in the sky

They can fly so high, then why can't I

I see the fishes in the sea

And they just swim so free and laugh at me

Now I can run as fast as anyone

And no one follows me

Can you imagine anybody so free?

I got no secrets in my head

I got no books to read that must be read

I wonder down the water way

I left my cares and troubles yesterday

I got no need to be ahurrin'

And no one's pushin' me

And nothing ever gets to worrin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

I see new opens to the sun

And there's no door to close to anyone

Who makes rivers down my face

And I'll leave each one to find it's place

I got no need to be ahurrin'

And no one's pushin' me

And nothing ever gets to worrin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

Roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

Roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me

And I'll just roll like the river down to the sea

Now I got my freedom ain't nothin' holdin' me
