lyrics

Let me live how I want to live
Let me die how I want to die
Let me eat my fill of meat
Let me ease my trouble with wine
Let me be good to my fellow man
And always treat my women kind
Let me live how I want to live
Let me die how I want to die

Let me love when I need to love
Let me fight when I have to fight
Let me dance to a different drum
Let me walk towards the light
Give me the strength to lead those
Who don’t know wrong from right
Let me love when I need to love
Let me fight when I have to fight

Yes and lay me down
By the cool water
Let my thoughts lap around in the tides for a while
And the winds of change shift me where they may

Let me be all that I can be
Let me see beyond all that is seen
Yes and guide my hand to make a righteous stand
And let me smile on all mankind

Let me dream in coloured hues
Let me see no black or white
Let me fight no old man’s war
Let me pay no god no mind
Let me know no boarders
And roam the earth free in my own time
Let me dream in coloured hues
Let me see no black or white

Yes and lay me down
By the cool water
Let my thoughts lap around in the tides for a while
While winds of change shift me where they may
