Story Behind The Song
This song was written after a girlfriend of mine told me she needed space. Later I found out what she had intended to do with that space when I saw with this other guy at a local club. Instead of hurting him or her I went home and wrote this song. Today she still thinks we're friends and that's OK too.
Song Description
This song is comprised of a strong deep bass in addition to the lead guitar that rides comfortably along with this composition. This song has a Memphis sound toit. It is extremely smooth completely and has a chorus that lones to played over and over. The drum beat is as if riding a horse at gallop. The vocals are as smooth as humanly possible delivered. There's not enough I can say about this song. It's very good.

Lyrics
[Verse One]
I not sorry for the fun we had
Head-on Dead-on Head-on (BG Vocal)
And I?m not sorry (hey hey) for being sad
Head-on Dead-on Head-on (BG)
I?m not sorry baby (hey hey) for the love I gave
For the love I gave baby (BG)
Not sorry for the time I waste
Time I waste (BG)
But I?m sorry I didn?t feel, what ya trying to say
Dodododododo (BG)
Cause when you say, you don?t love me
When you say. You don?t love me (BG)
You make me wanna fly away
Just like a sparrow, that flies away
Just like a sparrow baby, don?t mean no maybe baby (BG)
I?la all always, I wanna be free
Why did you leave? Hurt my feelings
Why did you leave? Hurt my feelings (BG)
I cannot stay here I gotta get free
[Chorus]
I gotta get free (BG)
The way you play me baby, could drive a good man crazy
Freeeeee (BG)
Too late for conversation, save it for your next relation
I gotta get free (BG)
Don?t need no complication, your problems you should face?em
Freeeeee (BG)
Head-on Dead-on Head-on
I gotta get free (BG)
I don?t want no drama mama, you took my thunder from me
Freeeeee (BG)
No need for allegations, can?t we control our patience.
I gotta get free (BG)
Thank you for the confirmation, from me congratulation
Freeeeee (BG)
Now move-on Groove-on Move-on
I gotta get free (BG)
No need for alimony, no one should pay a phony
Freeeeee (BG)
For the glamour of a shammer, for the pamper of a slammer
I gotta get free (BG)
For the answers to a scandal, for a sample of examples
Freeeeee (BG)
Don?t need no ?maybe? baby, and your stuff sure looks shady
I gotta get free (BG)
Now move-on Groove-on Move-on Freeeeee (BG)
Move-on Groove-on Move-on
I gotta get free (BG)
Just one step ahead of the figures and two points for the gold digger
Freeeeee (BG)
[Verse Two]
Sorry, but I?m not sorry for the friends we share
Head-on Dead-on Head-on (BG)
And I?m not sorry (hey hey) how much I care
Head-on Dead-on Head-on (BG)
I?m not sorry baby (hey hey) for the tears in my eyes
Not sorry, for the pain inside
But I?m sorry I can?t see, what ya tryin to say (hey hey)
Dodododododo (BG)
Cause when you say, you don?t love me
When you say. You don?t love me (BG)
You make me wanna walk away (hey hey)
Just like a blind man, can?t find his way
Just like a blind man (BG)
I?la all always, I wanted to see
Why did you leave, hurt my feelings
Why did you leave? Hurt my feelings (BG)
I cannot stay here, I gotta get free
I gotta get free (BG)
[Chorus]
The way you play me baby, could drive a good man crazy
Freeeeee (BG)
Too late for conversation, save it for your next relation
I gotta get free (BG)
Don?t need no complication, your problems you should face?em
Freeeeee (BG)
Head-on Dead-on Head-on
I gotta get free (BG)
I don?t want no drama mama, you took my thunder from me
Freeeeee (BG)
No need for allegations, can?t we control our patience.
I gotta get free (BG)
Thank you for the confirmation, from me congratulation
Freeeeee (BG)
Now move-on Groove-on Move-on
I gotta get free (BG)
No need for alimony, no one should pay a phony
Freeeeee (BG)
For the glamour of a shammer, for the pamper of a slammer
I gotta get free (BG)
For the answers to a scandal, for a sample of examples
Freeeeee (BG)
Don?t need no ?maybe? baby, and your stuff sure looks shady
I gotta get free (BG)

Move-on Groove-on Move-on
