Stop your screamin', stop puttin' me down

Sayin' my hair is much too long

Teachers & preachers say that rock is wrong

I ain't goin' to hell for singin' a song

Give me liberty is what I say

I will fight in my way

Sticks & stones will break my bones

But rock 'n' roll will never hurt me

Sticks & stones will break my bones

But rock 'n' roll will never hurt me

I've got a voice & I've got a choice

But mommy & daddy won't let me choose

I want it louder 'cuz we've got the power

The power to fight back, we can't lose

So give me liberty, is what I say

I will fight to be free
