	Story Behind the Song As a musical journalist depicting the times as they were in the 1990's. Lyrics I'm just a freeman A cowboy Joe from Montana Committed to my convictions And the winds of fate that prevail I know the G-man Is headed north up Texarcana With a posse and a badge In hot pursuit on my trail As I cross the badlands of South Dakota Out where the Sioux indian And buffalo once roamed free I know I don't dare look back Though I hear them ghost's a callin' I'm running late for a date With my scheduled destiny I'm a freeman, just a freeman I had a brother Got tangled up with a girl from Reno He wrote about a gal named Janet Who stole his soul away She left him dying In a housefire outside Waco Swore to myself right then I'd avenge that death someday Amd Now as night falls In Eastern Montana I build a fire near Jordan To warm my weary bones I stir the ashes And saddle up in the mornin' See the buzzards circlin' It's best I'd be headed home While I'm a freeman, just a freeman So as one nation under God Hears of the movement We face the facts of the Weaver Confrontation in Idaho Though a year has passed We still feel that blast in Oklahoma An eye for an eye, Mike Hill Gets shot in Ohio He was a freeman, just a freeman
