about

I am to unable to find the appropriate words to describe how it feels to suddenly be free, when you don't expect ito be . I was able find another to define it.

lyrics

I'm a runaway girl from way back when,
Take a gravel road just to see where it ends,
Now my headlight's broke and the moon is dim,
I'm not going back where I been.

I don't have handcuffs on my wrists,
Got no reason to resist,
So pour mine straight up with a twist,
It's been a long time since I felt like this.

CHORUS:
Freedom tastes like fire,
A double-shot, runnin; down my chin,
Fill my glass up higher,
Rub some on my skin,
Freedom tastes so good again.

Jack be nimble, don't be slow,
The candle wick is burning low,
We'll leave this smoke-filled place and go
into the wild blue yonder of the great unknown.

I'm not waiting for the wind to shift
or for the trainman to throw the switch,
I just need your goodbye kiss,
Burn some sugar on my lips.

CHORUS

I'll eat bread and water on the dessert sand,
Maybe grow a little somethin' on an acre of land,
Anything sound better than
that can of worms all over again.

CHORUS
Freedom -- it tastes so good again.
