Never never knew that the time would come
|
when every man must find where he does come from
|
never never knew that the day would come
|
when every fig must find its fig tree
|
|
jump little figs into your tree
|
and say you are free. say you are free
|
I've been rebuked and I've been scorned,
|
rejected of men, now i'm born
|
to start a new, so wont you too,
|
my loved ones come drink new wine with me
|
lets live and love in peace and harmony
|
and say we are free, say we are free
|
|
in my fig tree, where i wanna be,
|
so safe and free in my fig tree,
|
where i long to be from all misery
|
Now ever man is a man and every mickle mak a mottle
|
don't free some and put some in a shackle
|
for now is the time and the time is now
|
when we should live like in the days of old
|
when every sheep had their fold
|
|
to say they were free, say they were free
|
in my fig tree, where i wanna be,
|
so safe and free in my fig tree,
|
where i long to be from all misery.
|
in my my my my fig tree where i long to be......
