Grand Funk Railroad - Freedom Is For Children Lyrics






I wrote the words of freedom,
I've even sung the song.
But freedom is for children,
'Cause they don't understand what's wrong.

The children are so very lucky,
'Cause they're not old enough to know.
Not old enough to realize,
But they'll find out as they grow.

The children are so very lucky,
But, on the other hand, who's gonna' save the land?
The children are so very lucky,
But man's invention is gonna' be the prevention of their life.

This song is nearly over,
And so's the world and the day.
There's something missin',
But who will listen enough to do what it will take?

Freedom is for children. Why can't it be for me?
Freedom is for children. Why can't it be for me?

Freedom is for children. Why can't it be for me?
Freedom is for children. Why can't it be for me?
Freedom is for children. Why can't it be for me?

    Mark Farner is a musical genius. I despise the Rock and Roll Hall of Lame, but Farner himself deserves to be in it, as well the ORIGINAL Grand Funk Railroad

    Oh man, this was and is and always will be my favorite song. I remember being a young bride 17 pregnant and listening to this song over and over in 1973. Your band was our favorite.I even have drawings or sketches I sketched of you guys. I still have them. We are still here, together, married 45 years, battered and bruised and these lyrics man we lived them now. And now we are at the twilight of our years and true freedom is coming around the corner for us soon. God and only God can give Freedom.

    Hey Mark Mohan Choppalla is on facebook and he is one of my friends. He said he knows you and your families know each other. Reach out to that brother from another Mother.
