What if someone said you couldn't say I love you What if someone said you couldn't say your say And wouldn't it be foolish if somewhere there was a rule That said you couldn't wish a friend a happy day What if someone said you couldn't say I'm sorry Do you want to hear a thought to drive you wild What if someone said you couldn't tell your baby You're so proud to be the father of so beautiful a child Freedom freedom freedom to say what you feel Freedom freedom freedom to say what you feel What if someone said you couldn't pledge allegiance What if someone said you couldn't say your prayers What if someone said you couldn't say your feelings Unless your feelings coincide with theirs Freedom freedom freedom to say what you feel Freedom freedom freedom to say what you feel
