Freedom Walk

Gene Clark

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 tal
