I was born in the Southland
Twenty-some odd years ago
Ran away for the first time honey
When I was four years old
I'm a freeborn man
My home is on my back
I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad track
I got a lady in Cincinnati
A woman in San Anton
I always love the girl next door
Honey every place is home
I'm a freeborn man
My home is on my back
I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad track
You may not like the way I look
You may not like my song
You may not like the way I Live
You'll love the way I'm gone
I'm a freeborn man
Home is on my back
I know every inch of highway
Every foot of back road
Every mile of railroad
Every mile of railroad
Every mile of railroad track
