[Verse 1]
G
I was born in the north west
G
twenty odd years ago
G
ran away for the first time
G
when I was 4 years old
[Chorus]
C
I'm a free born man
G
My home is on my back
D
I know every inch of highway
C
every foot of back road
G
every mile of railroad track
[Verse 2]
G
I picked oranges down in Florida
G
I picked cotton in Alabam
G
I picked walnuts up in Oregon
G
I pick the guitar when i can
[Chorus]
C
I'm a free born man
G
My home is on my back
D
I know every inch of highway
C
every foot of back road
G
every mile of railroad track
[Verse 3]
G
Got a gal in Cincinnati
G
Got a woman in San Antone
G
I always loved the girl next door
G
but every place is home
[Chorus]
C
I'm a free born man
G
My home is on my back
D
I know every inch of highway
C
every foot of back road
G
every mile of railroad track
[Verse 4]
G
Got me a worn out Gibson
G
I carry in an old tote sack
G
I hocked it bout two hundred times
G
but I always got it back
[Chorus]
C
I'm a free born man
G
My home is on my back
D
I know every inch of highway
C
every foot of back road
G
every mile of railroad track
[Verse 5]
G
You may not like my appearance
G
You may not like my song
G
You may not like the way I talk
G
but you like me when I'm gone
[Chorus]
C
I'm a free born man
G
My home is on my back
D
I know every inch of highway
C
every foot of back road
G
every mile of railroad track
[Chorus]
C
I'm a free born man
G
My home is on my back
D
I know every inch of highway
C
every foot of back road
G
every mile of railroad track
