[00:00.00]Broken Freedom Song - Kris Kristofferson
[00:12.56]Got a song about a soldier
[00:18.34]Ridin' somewhere on a train
[00:24.16]Empty sleeve pinned to his shoulder
[00:30.00]And some pills to ease the pain
[00:35.75]Started drinkin' in El Paso
[00:41.45]He was drunk in San Antone
[00:47.23]Tellin' strangers who were sleepin'
[00:52.89]How he hated goin' home
[00:58.68]Just a simple song of freedom
[01:04.29]He was never fightin' for
[01:09.98]No one's listenin' when you need 'em
[01:14.89]Ain't no fun to sing that song no more
[01:24.16]Got a song about a sister
[01:29.97]Waitin' somewhere by the phone
[01:35.40]For some man who never missed her
[01:41.19]Ever since he come and gone
[01:46.80]And it's harder for a woman
[01:52.45]With a baby on the way
[01:57.99]That's the price of bein' human
[02:03.71]When you're poor enough to pay
[02:09.26]So she listens to the freedom
[02:15.00]In the silence at her door
[02:20.58]No one's missin' till you need 'em
[02:25.41]Ain't no fun to sing that song no more
[02:46.01]Got a song about a savior
[02:51.27]Lookin' lonesome and afraid
[02:56.89]At a city full of strangers
[03:02.50]And a cross he never made
[03:08.08]And he's sadder than he's wiser
[03:13.78]And a longer way from home
[03:19.39]And he wonders why his father
[03:24.95]Left him bleeding and alone
[03:30.63]Just a broken song of freedom
[03:36.17]And the closing of a door
[03:41.86]No one's missin' till you need 'em
[03:46.63]Ain't no fun to sing that song no more
