John Wesley Harding
Kiss Me Miss Liberty
[Verse 1]
Up in Westminster, the bell fell down
Took two hundred years to touch the ground
Fall leaves drifted by and turned brown
A foreign plane was downed

[Verse 2]
Dogs came running from their cold dog pound
They leapt through the fence and ran downtown
And the convicts turned their ship around
And they were homeward bound

[Chorus]
Kiss me, Miss Liberty (Kiss me)
Take me to bed (Take me to bed)
So I can be free as well
Not just in my head
Kiss me, Miss Liberty (Kiss me)
Lift me above (Lift me above)
Unchain my heavy heart
Free me with love
Miss Liberty, kiss me

[Verse 3]
And the slaves were saved from their chain gang
Knives cut men down just about to hang
Lost love returned just like a boomerang
And it was I who sang
[Chorus]
Kiss me, Miss Liberty (Kiss me)
Take me to bed (Take me to bed)
So I can be free as well
Not just in my head
Miss Liberty, kiss me
Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me, oh

[Verse 4]
Freedom, show me to your foreign shore
Lay me in your arms at your front door
I can't face confinement anymore
I won't be ignored

[Chorus]
Kiss me, Miss Liberty (Kiss me)
Take me to bed (Take me to bed)
So I can be free as well
Not just in my head
Kiss me, Miss Liberty (Kiss me)
Lift me above (Lift me above)
Unchain my heavy heart
Kill me with love
Miss Liberty, kiss me
Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me, oh
