Text: Doobie Brothers. What Were Once Vices. Spirit.

Freedom don't come easy, babe,
when your spirit's flyin' up among the clouds;
and when you're faced with the wise man's road
you gotta know where to go.

Sun and the stars
are a trave'lin' man's companion,
leading the way for his journey,
east and west wherever you go, mm.

Leadin' the way, the first to come,
showin' the way for his children.
Now it's up to you,
do you know you're pullin, through?
Man, it's not easy and you know it.

Children in happy place,
they're always smiling;
showin' all their love with no deception,
treatin' each other like brothers and sisters do, yeah.

Children in a real good place,
they're always tryin';
jumpin' and playin' in the middle of the afternoon,
just havin' a ball; don't worry at all, yeah
