Song for a Free State
By Philip Denisch

We came for freedom, we came for peace,
The gears of state will lack our grease.
We came for liberty, we came for air,
We're Free State people, awfully rare.

We left our homes, we left our farms,
We won't forget our firearms.
We left our cities, we left our states,
We're Free State people, not inmates.

We went for life, we went for zest,
Laissez-faire is always best.
We went for good, we went for right,
We're Free State people, see our light.

We stand for justice, we stand for truth,
We stand together, age and youth.
We stand for wisdom, we stand for reason,
We're Free State People in any season.
