03 - Free Man In Paris

[00:14.02] The way I see it, he said
[00:17.35] You just can't win it
[00:20.00] Everybody's in it for their own gain
[00:22.88] You can't please 'em all
[00:25.17] There's always somebody calling you down
[00:27.72] I do my best
[00:28.83] And I do good business
[00:31.82] There's a lot of people asking for my time
[00:34.61] They're trying to get ahead
[00:36.89] They're trying to be a good friend of mine
[00:43.81] I was a free man in Paris
[00:46.93] I felt unfettered and alive
[00:49.47] There was nobody calling me up for favors
[00:52.65] And no one's future to decide
[00:55.42] You know I'd go back there tomorrow
[00:58.42] But for the work I've taken on
[01:01.48] Stoking the star maker machinery
[01:04.79] Behind the popular song
[01:34.70] I deal in dreamers
[01:37.23] And telephone screamers
[01:40.76] Lately I wonder what I do it for
[01:43.26] If l had my way
[01:44.99] I'd just walk out those doors
[01:47.22] And wander
[01:48.98] Down the Champs Elysees
[01:52.28] Going cafe to cabaret
[01:54.56] Thinking how I'll feel when I find
[01:57.53] That very good friend of mine
[02:04.23] I was a free man in Paris
[02:06.94] I felt unfettered and alive
[02:09.98] Nobody was calling me up for favors
[02:13.25] No one's future to decide
[02:16.09] You know I'd go back there tomorrow
[02:18.88] But for the work I've taken on
[02:22.03] Stoking the star maker machinery
[02:25.06] Behind the popular song
[02:41.30]
