Born to roam beneath the sun

Not one a keeper
Older man he said I’ll tell you boy
You’ve planted rotten seeds
And in a land of happiness
They’ll grow us evil trees
Guided minds, and eyes that will never see
Holyman I’ll tell you
Just what it is that I believe
-Chorus-
Holyman I tell you man you gotta
Believe in what you see
‘Cause its you that corrupt us man and
Deep throat philosophy
I don’t need your spells or the little
Games you try to pull on me
Come to think of it I don’t need your religion
-Chorus-
