Free Spirit
Josef Salvat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When there′s too much talking
I like to go out walking
I never know how long I'll be
It depends who′s asking
I commune with nature (he communes)
Life can be so easy (easy)
Out in the great wide open
Where nobody can call me (nobody can call)

Yes, I'm a free spirit, baby
I'm with the birds and the bees
Some like it tied down
But I like it free, hey-hey-hey
′Cause I′m a free spirit, baby
I'm with the birds and the bees
Some like it tied down
But I like it free

Under a green vine
A perfume breeze and the sunshine
They say it′s healthy you know
To get a little alone time (alone time)
Responsibility
It's a bit too early for that, you see
′Cause I've got things, I must fight for and places to be
There′s no caging me (no-no-no)

'Cause I'm a free spirit, baby
I′m with the birds and the bees
Some like it tied down
But I like it free, hey-hey-hey
Yes, I′m a free spirit, baby
I'm with the birds and the bees
Some like it tied down
But I like it free
Some like it tied down
But I like it free
Free, free, hm-hmm...





Some like it tied down
But I like it free
