Free Man in Paris |
The way I see it he said |
You just can’t win it |
Everybody’s in it for their own gain |
You can’t please 'em all |
There’s always somebody calling you down |
I do my best and I do good business |
There’s a lot of people asking for my time |
They’re trying to get ahead |
They’re trying to be a good friend of mine |
I was a free man in Paris |
I felt unfettered and alive |
There was nobody calling me up for favours |
And no one’s future to decide |
You know I’d go back there tomorrow |
But for the work I’ve taken on |
Stoking the star maker machinery |
Behind the popular song |
I deal in dreamers |
And telephone screamers |
Lately I wonder what I do it for |
If l had my way |
I’d just walk through those doors |
And wander down the Champs-Élysées |
Going café to cabaret |
Thinking how I’ll feel when I find |
That very good friend of mine |
I was a free man in Paris |
I felt unfettered and alive |
Nobody was calling me up for favours |
No one’s future to decide |
You know I’d go back there tomorrow |
But for the work I’ve taken on |
Stoking the star maker machinery |
Behind the popular song |
