Based on Peter, Paul and Mommy too version(children s music concert version in 1993)
Intro: (5x)
Three horses greazing out my window brown black and white they stand
with rolling pastures they can wander free and easy is their land-Al
Chorus:
Don t ever take away our freedom don t ever take it away we must cherish
and keep that one part of our lives and the rest we re gonna find
one of these days...
one of these days
I ve always thought that I ve seen in my own lifetime
an end into poverty injustice and the wars but now I ve learned to that job
it s gonna take a long, long time so there s one thing that must endure
(chorus)
When I m old I m thinking over this whole life that I have lived
if there is one final wish left to me I will pray for the children
yet to be born and I will pray that they ll always live free
(chorus)
There is a time for the singing and the sunshine
There is a time for the thunder and the rain
There s a time for the changing all the seasons my friends
but there s one thing that must never ever change
(chorus)
Ending:
And the rest we re gonna find one of these days
