Die Free

I've had a fun life
getting to ride the rails
watching this great country pass me by
sometimes I can't help but think
life has passed me by
every day is a new train
but just like it's the same train
still I wake up each day
with a smile on my face
I wouldn't have it any other way
I can say “I'm my own man
ain't no claims on me.”
If I die in a box car
I'll die free
I can say “I'm my own man
ain't no claims on me.”
If I die in a box car
I'll die free

TSA, TSA
TSA took my spoons away
What the hell I'mma' posta play
TSA took my spoons away
I was getting on a airplane
just the other week
when I tried to pass the gate
the guard began to speak
he said Mr Smokey,
I'll have to have your spoons
they're a danger to our nation
so hand 'em over soon
TSA, TSA
TSA took my spoons away
What the hell I'mma' posta play
TSA took my spoons away
How many tax dollars
Do I have to pay
to fund the men and women
of the Take my Spoons Away
I know They're protecting us
from nail clippers, spoons, and shoes
but how come it feels like the terrorists win
and Old John smokey always lose?
TSA, TSA
TSA took my spoons away
What the hell I'mma' posta play
TSA took my spoons away

Well this is Old John Smokey in the 21 century
this is Old John Smokey in the 21 century
you got your cellphone
you got your movies too
got your cellphone
you got computer things
it's the 21st century
I don't know what becomes of the kids today
I don't even see a new generation of spoon players
it's the 21st century
it's so crazy now
you got electric light
you got cars and stuff
don't even take the train
you got a jet plane
it goes fast enough
it goes very fast
until it crashes up
(robot): electro spoons
You got your Internet
you got your Nsfw show
you got a Twit TV
you got your other stuff
it's all this 'ww
and the dot com!
and the dot com!
and the dot com!
