Gene Clark - Freedom Walk lyrics

Now and then the chill of fear Drums demonic discords near With hate the innocence of youth Is raped before the age of reason Even sees the truth Beautiful is beauty's way Who told the guru what to say It wasn't Christ who had a better way 'Cause He knew that ultimately The Mojo hand is gonna come into play But he still had a better way 'Cause he would walk that walk He would take a sign And make the way down the freedom walk And He knew how to make that sign He knew how to make people see That were blind down on the freedom walk Skid row faces having not Swirling graceless empty in thought Soaked in wine until they rot Meanwhile you pay their way To not feel what they've become Enough is enough say Vietnam The cost of all those war machines and bombs Spent on murderous insanity Was enough to fill 1968's book of humanity We're gonna walk that walk And you know we're gonna talk that talk Down on the freedom walk The continentals voice is finally sound And surface up from underground Truth and courage newly they have found United now to bring those senseless boundaries down You see them they all are walking their walk On top of the wall they're all just Talking their talk they talk of freedom walk All the spirits that have ever been bound Are coming in and they are hanging round 'Cause they want that walk, walk, walk So get away from the chill of fear It summons up demonic discords And they want to rape with hate The innocence of youth And take away their eyes before The age of reason can see the truth The spirit is that we well hide The spirit is something some people think That they can pay every Sundays hat And when the gates of Heaven open They have bought that I wonder when they walk that walk Do they know how to make the sign And talk about the freedom talk Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh They know how to make that sign And they're gonna tell their mind They dug the freedom walk Oh, woh Continentals voices sound Surface up now the underground Truth and courage can be found The world can unite to bring All those senseless boundaries down
