Might as Well Be Free by Jon Butcher Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1989

The Motor City took my job
Just a face within the mob
So I had to get away
I was angry at myself
Put my own life on the shelf
Makin' pennies every day, yeah

But I'm through doing time
Pushin' rocks on through a vine
And if the bad times ain't over for me

I might as well be free
Hey
I might as well be free

Spendin' weekends at the mall
Ain't any life at all
But we did the best we could
I'm a symptom of the times
Found my faith between the lines
When it ever did any good, yeah
But I'm through doing time
And I've committed no crime
If the bad times ain't over for me

I might as well be free
I might as well be free

Yeah, I'm back on my feet
Greased and ready for the streets
I'm not wanderin' anymore
I got leather on my heels
I got rubber on my wheels
I got a magnum .44, yeah

But I'm through doing time
With my ass out on the line
And if the bad times ain't over for me

I might as well be free
I might as well be free
Yeah, I might as well be
Free
Free

I might as well be free
I might as well be free
Look out
