Der Songtext des Liedes "Set Me Free" von Merle Haggard lautet:
If you think you've had enough if you think our life's been rough
Why not take your love line off of me and set me free
If you think our love's all wrong if you feel the fire is gone
If that's not what you'd like for me to be set me free
Set me free and let me fly like a bluebird fly in high
Release the chain that's bindin' you to me and set me free
[ guitar ]
But you're the kind that likes to hold on and on to love till it grows cold
And you know you've held on much too long to me so why won't you set me free
Please just set me free
Set me free and let me fly like a bluebird in the sky
Release the chain that's bindin' you to me and set me free set me free
