Free To Be ... You And Me

sung by The New Seekers
from "Free To Be ... You And Me"

The band consisted of Eve Graham, Lyn Paul, Marty Kristian, Peter Doyle, and Paul Layton.
I'm not sure which person sings which line so they're identified as Woman or Man (for now).


Woman:
There's a land that I see
Where the children are free
And I see it ain't far
To this land from where we are
Take my hand, come with me
Where the children are free!
Come with me, take my hand, and we'll live ...

All:
In a land where the river runs free!
In a land through the green country!
In a land to a shining sea!

Woman:
And you and me are free to be you and me

I see a land bright and clear
And the time's comin' near
When we'll live in this land
You and me, hand in hand!
Take my hand, come along!
Lend your voice to my song!
Come along, take my hand, sing a song ...

All:
For a land where the river runs free!
For a land through the green country!
For a land to a shining sea!
For a land where the horses run free!

Woman:
And you and me are free to be you and me

Every boy in this land grows to be his own man

Man:
In this land, every girl grows to be her own woman

All:
Take my hand, come with me
Where the children are free!
Come with me, take my hand, and we'll run ...

To a land where the river runs free!
To a land through the green country!
To a land to a shining sea!
To a land where the horses run free!
To a land where the children are free!

Woman:
And you and me are free to be ...

Man:
And you and me are free to be ...

Woman
And you and me are free to be you and me

(Music ends, then starts up after a pause)

All:
You and me ...!
You and me ...!
You and me ...!
Ba ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba ....!

Woman:
And you and me are free to be you and me
