Free born man

I was born in the southland! twenty some odd years ago.
now i ran away for the first time when i was about four years old.
i'm a free born man.my home is on my back.
lord, i know every inch of highway and every foot of backroad never a mile from a railroad track.
i got a gal in cincinatti, got a woman in san antone.
but i always love that girl next door and any ole place is home.
i'm a free born man.my home is on my back.
lord, i know every inch of highway and every foot of backroad never a mile from a railroad track.
i've got me a worn out guitar.i carry an ole tote sack.
i've hocked it about two-hundred times but i always get it back.
i'm a free born man.my home is on my back.
now i know every inch of highway and every foot of backroad never a mile from a railroad track.
you may not like my appearance.you may not like my song,
you might not like the way i am but you sure like the way i'm gone
i'm a free born man.my home is on my back.
lord, i know every inch of highway and every foot of backroad never a mile from a railroad track.
