Kris Kristofferson - Broken Freedom Song

got A Song About A Soldier,
Ridin` Somewhere On A Train
Empty Sleeve Pinned To His Shoulder
And Some Pills To Ease The Pain
Started Drinkin` In El Paso,
He Was Drunk In San Antone,
Tellin` Strangers Who Were Sleepin`
How He Hated Goin` Home
Just A Simple Song Of Freedom,
He Was Never Fightin` For,
No One`s Listenin` When You Need `em,
Ain`t No Fun To Sing That Song No More.
Got A Song About A Sister,
Waitin` Somewhere By The Phone,
For Some Man Who Never Missed Her,
Ever Since He Come And Gone
And Its Harder For A Woman,
With A Baby On The Way,
That`s The Price Of Bein` Human,
When You`re Poor Enough To Pay,
So She Listens To The Freedom,
In The Silence At Her Door
No One`s Missin` Till You Need `em
Ain`t No Fun To Sing That Song No More
Got A Song About A Savior,
Lookin` Lonesome And Afraid,
At A City Full Of Strangers,
And A Cross He Never Made
And He`s Sadder Than He`s Wiser,
And A Longer Way From Home,
And He Wonders Why His Father,
Left Him Bleeding And Alone.
Just A Broken Song Of Freedom,
And The Closing Of A Door,
No One`s Missin` Till You Need `em
Ain`t No Fun To Sing That Song No More.
