(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
