​"Five Hundred Miles

to Freedom"
 

(c) 2013 Roger Cotton and Bob Tupper

Sung by The Freeman Project

(Acoustic version)

(Band version)

Five hundred miles to freedom.
Four hundred more to go.
I will do or I will die,
Flying Old Glory by my side.

Four Hundred miles to freedom.
Three hundred more to go.
We will talk, and then I'll walk.
Flying Old Glory by my side.

To the Powers That Be,
I was born to be free.
You can try and stop me if you can.
But, I'm more than just one man.

I say, no, no, no.
Not just, no, but hell no!
I will stand up and fight
For my right to bear arms,
And I'll bring back the water
You stole from our farms,
I say, no.

Three hundred miles to freedom.
Two hundred more to go.
I'll be heard
If you spread the word,
Singing, Glory, Glory, Hallelujah.

Two hundred miles to freedom,
One hundred more to go.
I walk with Him.
And, He walks with me.
Singing, Glory, Glory, Hallelujah.



To the Powers That Be,
We were born to be free.
You can try and stop us if you can.
But, we're more than just one man.

We say, no, no, no.
Not just, no, but hell no!
We will stand up and fight
For our right to bear arms,
And we'll bring back the water
You stole from our farms,

We say, no, no, no.
Not just, no, but hell no!
We're sick of your lies
And the games that you play.
You seem to despise
The American Way.


We'll ignore your attacks
As you pull out your knives.
And, we won't pay a tax
Just for being alive!

No. No. We say, no. No. No.
