Kiss Me, Miss Liberty Lyrics - John Wesley Harding

Up in Westminster, the bell fell down 

Took three hundred years to touch the ground 

Fall leaves drifted by and turned brown 

Foreign plane was downed 

Dogs came running from their cold dog pound 

They leapt through the fence and ran downtown 

And the convicts turned their ship around 

They were homeward bound 

Kiss me, Miss Liberty 

Take me to bed 

So I can be free as well 

Not just in my head 

Kiss me, Miss Liberty 

Lift me alone 

Unchain my heavy heart 

Fill me with love 

Miss Liberty, kiss me 

And the slaves were saved from their chain-gang 

Knives cut men down, just about to hang 

Lost love returned just like a boomerang 

And it was I who sang 

Kiss me, Miss Liberty 

Take me to bed 

So I can be free as well 

Not just in my head 

Miss Liberty, kiss me 

Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me, oh 

Freedom, show me to your foreign shore 

Lay me in your arms at your front door 

I can't face confinement anymore 

I won't be ignored 

Kiss me, Miss Liberty 

Take me to bed 

So I can be free as well 

Not just in my head 

Kiss me, Miss Liberty 

Lift me above 

Unchain my heavy heart 

Kill me with love 

Miss Liberty, kiss me 

Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me, oh
