Freedom Tree

So much to see
In a free country
So much to do
Everybody wants you
Be all you can be
That’s all you can be
It’s so fine to be
In a free country

After all of this time
We don’t see the stop signs
And wouldn’t you know
They just didn’t show
But we all get a turn
They keep what you earn
You think I’d have learned
But baby I got burned

So you think it’s a problem
Well I can deal with that
We can always talk about them
But they’ll never know
Never know where we’re at

Would you look at the moon
Shining into my room
So far away
We'll get there someday
And it would've been nice
It would've been fun
But what can we do
It's over and done

Up on Capitol Hill
Stood a little girl named Jill
She said listen, Jack
I’d like to have my money back
But we all get a turn
They keep what you earn
You think she’d have learned
But that little girl got burned

So we don’t know what we’re missing
Well I can deal with that
Gotta watch who you’re kissing
Cause baby you know
You know it’s a fact

So much to see
In a free country
So much to do
Everybody wants you
Be all you can be
That’s all you can be
It’s so fine to be
In a free country
It’s so fine to be
In a free country
It’s so fine to be
In a freedom tree

Exit Reunion New York, New York

In October, 2011, soon after a rousing, 20-year reunion show at Bobby Q's in Westport, CT, members of the erstwhile jam band, Left Exit, got together in a studio made of reclaimed bowling lanes in Brooklyn, NY to begin recording what would, a year later, become RECREATION, a 2-disc, 14-song album by a band of one time road warriors with some unfinished business. Thus was born Exit Reunion. ... more
