Day has soul, carry pack
One way trip, no turning, turning back
No delay, bad situations
Whistle stops and fleeting stations
It's all Shangri-La
With my Neil Young guitar
So fine, a retro line
Let the soundtrack play
A little something I've been preaching
Simple life I've trouble reaching
It's become that kind of place
Attracting those with little taste
Say Veronica
You got Bob's harmonica
Takes me to another time
Let the soundtrack play on Freedom Way
Say Veronica
You got Bob's harmonica
Takes me to another time
Let the soundtrack play
Call the odds now or never
Tilt our hats against the weather
Only thing I know tonight
Basic grasp of what's wrong and right
It's all Shangri-La
With my Neil Young guitar
So fine, a retro line
Let the soundtrack play on Freedom Way
On freedom, Freedom Way
On freedom, Freedom Way
It's all Shangri-La
With my Neil Young guitar
So fine, a retro line
Let the soundtrack play on Freedom Way
