I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free

And I wish I knew how It would feel to be free I wish that I could break All the chains holding me And I wish I could say All the things that I'd like to say Say 'em loud say 'em clear For the whole round world to hear I wish I could share All the love that's in my heart Remove every doubt that keeps us apart And I wish you could know What it means to be me Then you'd see and agree Every man should be free I wish I could live Like I'm longin' to live I wish that I could give All I'm longin' to give And I wish I could do All the things that I'd like to do You know there still is quite a few Yes Sir... And I'm way way over due I wish I could be like a bird up in the sky How sweet it would be If I found out I could fly I'd soar up to the sun And look down upon the sea And I sing because I know How it feels to be And I sing because I know How it feels to be And I sing because I know How it feels to be free Yeah!
