Free Speech

I'm sitting on the porch Writing the songs I never dared to before I don't hear what you say Because I'm listening to my own voice So if you've got something to say to me Speak up, speak up Or be quiet forevermore I'm gonna take the back-road home again Quickly, quickly So I don't have to talk to you 'Cause everything will be fine Everything will be great When I finally say what I want to your face Yes, everything will be great It's gonna be so nice When I finally say what's on my mind Summertime is catching up with me I feel the air changing I wish that I could say That I am too So if you've got something to say to me Speak up, speak up Or be quiet forevermore I'm gonna take the back-road home again Quickly, quickly So I don't have to talk to you 'Cause everything will be fine Everything will be great When I finally say what I want to your face Yes, everything will be great It's gonna be so nice When I finally say what's on my mind I'm sitting on the porch Writing the songs I never dared to before I don't hear what you say Because I'm listening to my own voice
