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 heartbeatin' 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 people choose the city
Some others
Choose the good old family home
Some others choose the good old family home
I like living easy without family ties
'Cause it's easy
'Til 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
Mmmm
Mmmm
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
Mmmm
Mmmm
Shine a light
Shine a light
Shine a light won't you shine a light
Philadelphia freedom
I love you
You know I love you
Yeah
You know I love you
Yes I do
Philadelphia Freedom
I love you
Yes I do
Philadelphia freedom
You know that I love you
Yes I do
Philadelphia freedom
Oh
Don't you know that I love you
Yes I do
Philadelphia freedom
Ha
Don't you know that I love you
Yes I do
Philadelphia freedom
