31 May 99 - 11:48 AM (#83022) Subject: NEED WORDS TO 'FREEBORN MAN..' From: Zorro I first heard this bluegrass song by Jimmy Martin. I thought I had the words, had gotten them off Mudcat, but alas, I can't find them in the data base or titles. Can anyone help? "....... 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 rail road track..." chorus Thanks... Z

I saw your request title and didn't look up the message before opening a word-processing document to type from memory the Ewan MacColl song I thought you wanted. Lest my efforts go to waste I submit these lyrics anyway! FREEBORN MAN by Ewan MacColl (porbably slightly altered from the original)
I'm a freeborn man of the travelling people
In the open ground you can stop and linger
Oh we knew the woods and the resting places
Oh I've known life hard and I've known it easy
I've mended pots and made heather beesoms
And sometimes we'd meet with the other people
All you free born men of the travelling people PLEASE READ ZORRO'S ORIGINAL REQUEST AND HELP US GET THE WORDS TO THE OTHER FREEBORN MAN SONG1
