from the songs album unknown
I was born right here on randolph street in freehold
Here right behind that big red maple in freehold
Well, i went to school right here
Got laid and had my first beer
In freehold
Well, my folks always lived and worked right here in freehold
I remember running up the street, past the condo to the church here in
Freehold
Chase my daddy down in these bars
First fell in love with this guitar
Here in frehold
Well, i had my first kiss at the ymca canteen on a friday night
Maria espenoza tell me where are you tonight?
You were 13 but way ahead of your time
I walked home with a limp but i felt fine
That night in freehold
Well, the girls at freehold regional they looked pretty fine
And my heart broke at least half a dozen times
I wonder if they miss me, they still get the itch
Would they have dumped me if they knew i'd strike it rich?
Straight out of freehold
Well, tex, rest in peace, and marion gave us kids a hand in freehold
George and me started up a little rock and roll band in freehold
Well, we learned pretty quick how to rock it
I'll never forget the feeling of that first 5 bucks in my pocket
That i earned in freehold
Well, i got outta here really hard and fast in freehold
Everybody wanted to kick my ass back there in freehold
Well, if you were different, black or brown
It was a bit of a redneck town
Back then in freehold
Well, something broke my daddy's back in freehold
In '69 he left and he never come back to freehold
'cept once he drove from california, 3000 miles in three days
Called my mothers relatives some dirty names
And pulled straight out of freehold
My sister had her first little baby at 17 in freehold
Well people they can be pretty mean
Honey, you had a rough road to go, but you ain't made of nothin' but soul
I love you more than you'll ever know
We both survived freehold
Well, my buddy mike, well, he's the mayor now in freehold
I remember when we used to have a lot more hair in freehold
Well, i left and swore i'd never walk these streets again, jack
Tonight all i can say is "holy shit, i'm back!"
Back in freehold
Well, this summer everything was green in freehold
Rode my kids on the fire engine through the streets of freehold
I showed 'em where their dad was born and raised
And first felt the sun on his face
There in freehold
Well, i still got a lot of good friends right here in town
I can usually find me a free beer somewhere
With offers of free meals i am blessed
Should i go crazy, blow all my money and ruin my life, well, at least i'll
Never go hungry i guess
Here in freehold
Well, i got a good catholic education here in freehold
Led to an awful lot of masturbation here in freehold
Father, it was just something i did for a smile
Hell, i still get a good one off once in a while
And dedicate it to freehold
Don't get me wrong, i ain't puttin' anybody down
Hell, in the end it all just goes and comes around
It's one hell of a town, freehold!
