Live alone and like it

Free as the birds in the trees

High above the briars



Live alone and like it

Doing whatever you please

When your heart desires

Free to hang around or

Fly at any old time



No equivocation

Most of all no guarantees

That can be your motto

Free of obligation

Only the murmuring breeze

As an obligatto

Live alone and like it

Why is that such a crime?



Free to call the tune,

Free to say if you're

Gonna work or play

You can have the moon

But you don't have to have

It night and day



Anyway,

On your own with only

You to concern yourself

Doesn't mean you're lonely

Just that you're free

Live and alone and like it

Don't come down from that tree.



That's the answer for me

That's the answer for me
