lyrics

I’ve got a deadline for freedom
And it’s coming up soon
I’m talking deadline for freedom
Stand back and give me room

Don’t want no chains on my body
Can’t take no two bit demands
You know I’m billed out and ready
I’ve got to start making plans

You try and tell me we could go and roll back the time
You try and tell me we could forget
You say the future’s nothing more than trying to decide
To give up ever having regrets

I’m looking straight down the barrel
And I ain’t shaking at all
There ain’t no time left to quarrel
Lady we just hit the wall

This ain’t no heart for the taking
Don’t have no manner to please
Don’t sing your sweet songs to me girl
Can’t take you always playing the tease

I went to get my future told at midnight last night
The gypsy woman told me the news
She looked into my eyes and said you’re single again
Some you win but this one you lose

I’ve got a deadline for freedom
I’m moving right down the line
I’m talking deadline for freedom
Can’t throw away any more time.
