The Conells Freeman lyrics

I'm a freeman in the morning I'm gonna go home
Been serving for years, never too near, always too far
There was a young girl in the county who had an eye for me
We kissed for a while that made her smile

Then it came down on me to fake it
I should have found a way to escape it
I was so wrong to say I'd see her one more time

Oh, I'm a young man like a preacher, no souls to mend
I've traveled too much to be known as just a traveling man
So they judged me for a crime I could never have done
They said I was one who carried a gun

Then it came down on me to fake it
I should have found a way to escape it
I was so wrong to say I'd see her one more time


Oh, and when it is time for me to make it
I will have found a way to break it
When I go home again I'll see her one more time

In the cold light of the morning I'm gonna go home
It's never too near, it's always too far

And then it came down on me to fake it
I should have found a way to escape it
I was so wrong to say I'd see her one more time

Oh, and when it is time for me to make it
I will have found a way to break it
When I go home again I'll see her one more time
