| Night, is the time for the hunger | 
| Through these rooms, you and I, we wander | 
| Too much, too long, holding back the tears | 
| I wait, do hard labor and I count the years | 
| Hey, soon the angels will unlock the sun | 
| Break away these chains, yeah, and turn away the gun | 
| Nothing is better than the freedom | 
| Yeah, nothing is better, yeah, than the freedom | 
| Let the law take a man from his family | 
| See the evil on the fences down the highway | 
| Too bad, so sad to be on the lam | 
| (Too bad, so sad) | 
| From my home I must crawl on my knees and hands | 
| Hey hey, and soon the angels will unlock the sun | 
| (Soon the angels will unlock the sun, hey hey) | 
| Break away these chains, yeah, and turn away the gun | 
| Yeah, nothing is better than the freedom | 
| (Nothing is better, nothing’s better than the freedom, oh yeah) | 
| Yeah, nothing is better than the freedom | 
| (Oh, nothing, nothing’s better) | 
| Yeah, nothing is better than the freedom | 
| (Nothing, nothing’s better, nothing’s better than the freedom, oh yeah) | 
| Yeah, nothing is better than the freedom | 
| (Nothing, nothing’s better) | 
| Nothing is better than the freedom | 
| (Nothing's better than the freedom) | 
| Nothing is better than the freedom | 
| Yeah, nothing is better than the freedom | 
| (Nothing, nothing’s better, nothing’s better than the freedom) | 
| Nothing is better, yeah, than the freedom, yeah | 
| (Nothing, nothing’s better, freedom) | 
| (Is better, is better than the freedom) | 
| Ooh baby, nothing, nothing is better | 
| (Nothing, nothing is better) | 
| (Ain't nothing, ain’t nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing) | 
| Nothing’s better, yeah hey | 
| (Nothing, nothing is better, nothing is better) |
