They throwed him in jail  And they kept him there  Hoping soon he'd die  That his body and spirit would waste away  And soon after that his mind    But every day is born a fool  One who thinks that he can rule  One who says tomorrow's mine  One who wakes one day to find  The prison doors open the shackles broken  And chaos in the streets    Everybody sing we're free free free free  Everybody sing we're free free free free  Everybody sing we're free free free free    The throwed him in jail  And they kept him there  Hoping his memory'd die  That the people forget how he once led  And fought for justice in their lives    But every day is born a man  Who hates what he can't understand  Who thinks the answer is to kill  Who thinks his actions are god's will    And he thinks he's free free free free  Yes he thinks he's free free free free  He thinks he's free free free free    Soon must come the day  When the righteous have their way  Unjustly tried are free  And people live in peace I say  Give the man release  Go on and set your conscience free  Right the wrongs you made  Even a fool can have his day    Let us all be free free free free  Let us all be free free free free  Let us all be free free free free    Free our bodies free our mind  Free our hearts  Freedom for everyone  And freedom now    Freedom now  Freedom now  Freedom now    Let us all be free free free free  Let us all be free free free free  Let us all be free free free free
