[Verse 1]

Blast off, bang-bang, power trip

Just to set the world afire

God looked down an unapproving frown

Said, "Get those boys up higher

They got nothing more than what they're living

Out where freedom ringing"

As I rolled down the window to flick my butt

I could hear him singing

[Chorus]

Freedom rings

Into your heart

Tears you apart from the start

Freedom, freedom rings

Right to your soul

Taking a hold, so it goes

Freedom rings

Into your heart

Tears you apart from the start

Freedom, freedom rings

Right to the soul

Taking a hold

Hear them singing:

"Freedom ringing"

Freedom will ring

[Verse 2]

Tailspin, down, down, down we go

On the darker side of night

We held on tight, like flags in a hurricane

Waiting for the daylight

We had nothing more than what we were

My fingernails were clinging

As I tightened my grip, caught my breath

I still heard him singing:

"Hang on tight; it's all right

Out where freedom's ringing"

[Chorus]

Freedom rings

Into your heart

Tears you apart from the start

Freedom, freedom rings

Right to your soul

Taking a hold, so it goes

Freedom rings

Into your heart

Tears you apart from the start

Freedom, freedom rings

Right to the soul

Taking a hold

Hear them singing:

"Freedom ringing"

Freedom will ring

[Bridge 1]

Here we go, no one knows

Out where freedom ringin'

Hang on tight; it's all right

Out where freedom ringin'

Here we go, no one knows

Out where freedom ringin'

Hang on tight; it's all right

Hang on tight; it's all right

[Bridge 2]

The beaches blew the warning

The boys faced her on the sand

She's a goddamn demon, she's an evil bitch

And she slaps with an iron hand

Now, we ain't ones for running

And we don't know right from wrong

So, we stared down into the eye of the beast

Stood fucking Jersey strong, that's right

[Bridge 3]

"She's coming, she's a hurricane

She's ringing," all the children say

Come on down when ya hear the sound

Where the sky will meet the water

Come on down, we always been around

Even through the slaughter

"She's coming, she's a hurricane

She's ringing," all the children say

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Freedom rings

Into your heart

Tears you apart from the start

Freedom, freedom rings

Right to your soul

Taking a hold, so it goes

Freedom rings

Into your heart

Tears you apart from the start

Freedom, freedom rings

Right to the soul

Taking a hold

Hear them singing:

"Freedom ringing"

Freedom will ring
