Twenty-one and strong as i can be
I know what freedom means to me
And i can't give the reason why
I should ever want to die
Got no cause to be afraid
Or fear that life will ever fade
'cause as i watch the rising sun
I know that we have just begun
I might spend my life upon the road
Just tryin' to add to what i know
Then someday i might settle down
And all my friends will be around
They say a man should have a stock and trade
But me, i'll find another way
I believe in getting what you can
And there ain't no stoppin' this young man
Because i'm you and fast as i can be
I know what freedom means to me
And i can't give the reason why,
I should ever want to die
No i can't give the reason why
I should ever want to die
