Joni Mitchell – Free Man In Paris Lyrics  Share

From Joni Mitchell's album: Court And Spark

"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 favors
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
[ Free Man In Paris lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/j/joni-mitchell/free-man-in-paris/ ]
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 Elysees
Going cafe 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 favors
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."
