YOU AND ME AND A BOTTLE OF SCREW-TOP WINE
WE HEADED OUT TO THE LAKE FOR A LITTLE UNPLUG AND UNWIND
IN MY OLD SILVERADO, DRAGGIN' YOUR DADDY'S BOAT BEHIND
NOT A CLOUD IN THE SKY
ON THE FOURTH OF JULY

AND IT FELT LIKE FREEDOM
IT FELT LIKE BREAKIN' THOSE CHAINS
IT FELT LIKE LEAVIN' BEHIND US, THE TROUBLES THAT BIND US
AND NEVER LOOKIN' BACK AGAIN
IT FELT LIKE FREEDOM

GRANDADDY USED TO SAY SOME THINGS NEVER CHANGE
I THINK HE MUST'VE BEEN RIGHT
‘CAUSE, BABY, IT STILL FEELS THE SAME
WHEN I PUT MY ARMS AROUND YOU
IT TAKES ME RIGHT BACK TO THAT NIGHT
AND THOSE FIREWORKS IN YOUR EYES
ROCKIN' THAT BOAT ON THE FOURTH OF JULY

IT FEELS LIKE FREEDOM
IT FEELS LIKE BREAKIN' THOSE CHAINS
AND NEVER LOOKIN' BACK AGAIN
IT FEELS LIKE FREEDOM

LIKE TWO BIRDS THAT JUST GOT OUT OF THE CAGE
WE'LL STAY CLOSE TOGETHER, BABY, AND FLY AWAY

YOU AND ME, WE GOT SOME OF THAT BONNIE AND CLYDE
WE MIGHT LOOK LIKE TWO ORDINARY PEOPLE, ON THE OUTSIDE
BUT WHEN WE MAKE LOVE TONIGHTÂ…

IT'LL FEEL LIKE FREEDOM
IT'LL FEEL LIKE BREAKIN' THOSE CHAINS
IT'LL FEEL LIKE LEAVIN' BEHIND US, THE TROUBLES THAT BIND US
AND NEVER LOOKIN' BACK AGAIN

IT FEELS LIKE FREEDOM
IT FEELS LIKE BREAKIN' THOSE CHAINS
IT FEELS LIKE LEAVIN' BEHIND US THE TROUBLES THAT BIND US
AND NEVER LOOKIN' BACK AGAIN
IT FEELS LIKE FREEDOM

IT FEELS LIKE FREEDOM
