Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean And this old world is a new world And a bold world for me, yeah, yeah Stars when you shine, you know how I feel Scent of the pine, you know how I feel Oh, freedom is mine! And I know how I feel It's a new dawn It's a new day It's a new life for me I'm feeling good!
