Got to Be Free
"Got to Be Free" is a song written by Ray Davies and performed by British rock band The Kinks. It was released on their 1970 LP ''Lola versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One'', which included the Top 10 hit song "Lola". "Got to Be Free" plays a key role in the concept album, as the album borrows its first verse as an introduction, and closes with the full song. The song was also used in the first of the BBC's ''Play for Today'' series ''The Long Distance Piano Player'' (1970), which featured the songs own writer, Ray Davies, in the lead role.
==Overview==
Overall, the lyrics express a feeling of longing for a better world, or one devoid of all the troubles and restrictions of this one ("We've got to get out of this world somehow". The lyrics also act as a commentary on the music business, a recurring theme in ''Lola versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One''). "Got to Be Free" opens as a kind of lullaby ("Hush little baby/Don't you cry"), the same lyrics and tune as the album's introduction on side A, but soon changes to a more standard rock song structure, with a rousing chorus of "Got to be free to say what I want/Make what I want and play what I want" (with minor changes as the song progresses, such as "laugh when I want" and "do what I want").〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lola Versus Powerman & The Money-Go-Round, Part One (1970) )〕
