songtekst Angel
Angel came down from heaven yesterday
She stayed with me just long enough to rescue me
And she told me a story yesterday,
About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea
And then she spread her wings high over me
She said she's gonna come back tomorrow
And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel,
Fly on through the sky,
Fly on my sweet angel,
Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side"
Sure enough this morning came unto me
Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise
And my angel she said unto me,
"Today is the day for you to rise
Take my hand, you're gonna be my man,
You're gonna rise"
And then she took high over yonder
And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel,
Fly on through the sky,
Fly on my sweet angel,
Forever I will be by your side"
songtekst Freedom
You got my pride
Hangin' out of my bed
You're messin' with my life
So I bought my lead
You even messin' with my children
And you're screamin' at my wife, babe
Get off my back,
If you wanna get outta here alive
Freedom
That's what I want now
Freedom
that's what I need now
Freedom
To live
Freedom
So I can give
You got my heart
speak electric water
You got my soul
screamin' and howlin'
You know you hook my girlfriend
You know the drugstore man
But I don't need it now
I was trying to slap it out of her head
Freedom, so I can live
Freedom, so I can give
Freedom, yeah
Freedom, that's what I need
You don't have to say that you love me
If you don't mean it
You'd better believe
If you need me
Or you just wanna bleed me
You'd better stick in your dagger in someone else
So I can leave
Set me free
(Yeah)
Right on, straight ahead
Stay up and straight ahead
Freedom
So I can live it
Freedom
So I can turn around and give it
Freedom
So I can live it
