Marching on the freedom highway Marching each and every day Marching on the freedom highway Marching each and every day I made up my mind, and I won't turn around I made up my mind, and I won't turn around There is just one thing that I can't understand about friends Why some folks think freedom is not designed for all men There are so many people living their lives perplexed Wondering in their minds what's gonna happen next Tallahatchie river and lakes The whole wide world is wonderin' what's wrong with the United States Yes we want peace if it can be found We're gonna stay freedom highway, we're not gonna turn around And do you (do you) do you think I voted for the right man Who said we will over come I march the freedom highway until the day is done I'm gonna keep on marching on the freedom highway And I'm not gonna turn around
