“This is one of my favorite songs to perform live. I spent a decade thinking about the tune before I finally wrote it. I got the idea for the song from a short story by William Faulkner. It was a lot of fun to record the song live in Texas with a small band that we affectionately call The Mother Faulkners.”

I’m going out into the free world and farm
I’m gonna paint me a big red barn
Don’t wanna do nobody else no harm
I’m going out

I’m going out into the free world and farm
Buy me a mule, won’t need no car
Don’t wanna grow nobody else’s corn
I’m going out into the free world

I’ll put my hand to the plow
Won’t let ‘em keep me down
I’m going out

I’m going out into the free world and farm
Have me some chickens in my front yard
Don’t wanna fight nobody else’s war
I’m going out

I’m going out into the free world and farm
I’m gonna spin me some very fine yarns
Don’t wanna be where I can’t see the stars
I’m going out into the free world

I’ll put my hand to the plow
I’ll hold my head up proud
I’m going out
