A Free Man

[Verse 1]
The king of the jungle is a lion
But you kill his freedom once he's in a cage
A man needs a woman he can lean on
Not one to turn his life page by page

[Verse 2]
If you don't believe a lemon's bitter, try one
If it doesn't suit your taste, then throw it away
If you only want a puppet, then go buy one
If that's how it is, then I can't stay

[Chorus]
'cause every man wants to be a free man
Not one that's tied to bonds of jealousy
So if you're afraid of losing me, you'll lose me
But not to love
But to fear
The fear that I might be the man I really want to be

[Verse 3]
I know you don't understand my every move
And, at times, I wish you wouldn't even try
All you need to know is that I love you
And I will until the day I die

[Chorus]
But every man wants to be a free man
Not one that's tied to bonds of jealousy
So if you're afraid of losing me, you'll lose me
But not to love
But to fear
The fear that I might be the man I really want to be

[Outro]
The fear that I might be the man I really want to be
