作曲:Kris Kristofferson

I built my own chains

In the land of the free

A slave to a job

That meant nothing to me

With three shiny new cars

And a split level home

To furnish the tomb

I was dying to own

Then one day I wakened

With fear in my eye

Aware of a world

That was passing me by

I knew that my savings

Of silver and gold

Would mean not a thing

When my body was cold

Because life is a song

For the dying to sing

It's got to have

Feeling to mean anything

And a man can get by

Without silver or gold

With bread for the body

And song for the soul

I'm living my life

By the lesson I've learned

And not looking back

At the bridges I've burned

'Cause the time

That we travel from cradle to grave

Was meant to be spent

And not meant to be saved

And I know there are some

Who will say I'm a fool

But I don't give a damn

For the people that do

'Cause if down in a dungeon

Is where they belong

Well that's their misfortune

And none of my own

Because life is a song

For the dying to sing

It's got to have

Feeling to mean anything

And a man can get by

Without silver or gold

With bread for the body

And song for the soul
