Freeborn Woman - ORIGINAL song

I meant for it to have a southern rockish edge...did my best solo but a band would really give the full effect. lyrics: (one line's different cuz I rewrote since I recorded this)

Freeborn Woman

Oh I've heard home is where the heart is
but my heart is my home
you might beg me to stay
but I'm still gonna go
I've had a few good men but I couldn't stick around
cuz I got a guitar on my back, ain't ready to settle down

I'm a freeborn woman, thats what I am
I'm leavin here tomorrow, won't be comin back again
I'm a freeborn woman, is that a sin
I don't answer to anybody, I just sail on with the wind

well I don't like to cook
and I don't knit or sew
I read every word in the book
of things I aint supposed to know
they say that it aint lady like to talk the way I do
but the Lord made me this way and he loves me just like you

CHORUS REPEAT

there's songs left to be written
roads left to be driven on
there's places left to be seen
so don't be waitin on me

CHORUS Repeat
