(Set me free)
I got this horn, just the other day (set me free)
From a man, who came a long, long way (wow, you gotta set me free)
He said this horn, you understand, has come from Pakistan
And when you’re all alone, if you pick a fine tone
You just wait and see
This horn, it’s gonna set you free
I took this horn (ah, beep beep beep)
Pakistan (ah, beep beep beep)
I took it home (ah, beep beep beep)
I mean, I almost ran (that night that he…)
And when I heard the fine tone when I was all alone
All my wishes came true—I mean, my dreams of you
It was something for the eyes to see
This horn, it like to set me free
(Ah, free me; this horn, it like to set me free
Ah, free me; this horn, it like to set me free)
Now if you’re feeling sad (ah, beep beep beep)
I mean, you’re feeling real bad (ah, beep beep beep)
You don’t know what to do (ah, beep beep beep)
Your honey don’t want you (your honey don’t want you)
Just turn on the radio you’re your lights down low
Close your eyes real tight, think of your honey tonight
And when you hear the horn, you’ll see (beep)
You’ll know ‘cause what had happened to me
This horn, it like to set me free (ah, beep beep beep)
Now if you’re feeling sad (ah, beep beep beep)
I mean, you’re feeling real bad (ah, beep beep beep)
Don’t know what to do (ah, beep beep beep)
Your honey don’t want you (your honey don’t want you)
Just turn on the radio with the lights down low
Close your eyes real tight, think of your honey tonight
And when you hear the horn, you’ll see
You’ll know ‘cause what had happened to me
This horn, it like to set me free (ah ah, free)
I mean (this horn, it like to set me free)
Ooh wee (ah ah, free)
Oh yeah (this horn, it like to set me free)
I got this horn, just the other day (set me free)
From a man, who came a long, long way (wow, you gotta set me free)
He said this horn, you understand, has come from Pakistan
And when you’re all alone, if you pick a fine tone
You just wait and see
This horn, it’s gonna set you free
I took this horn (ah, beep beep beep)
Pakistan (ah, beep beep beep)
I took it home (ah, beep beep beep)
I mean, I almost ran (that night that he…)
And when I heard the fine tone when I was all alone
All my wishes came true—I mean, my dreams of you
It was something for the eyes to see
This horn, it like to set me free
(Ah, free me; this horn, it like to set me free
Ah, free me; this horn, it like to set me free)
Now if you’re feeling sad (ah, beep beep beep)
I mean, you’re feeling real bad (ah, beep beep beep)
