Ain't it strange That when you're lonely And your friends they're not around So you make your big decision Get your feet back on the ground When you're down And no one wants you And you wonder who you are When your friends They don't desert you When you make it you're a star But I'm gonna stay Free and easy I know just what I am I'm gonna be free and easy Well, I've been through All the heartaches And I've been through all the pain But when you're up and riding high Everybody stakes their claim I'm gonna be free and easy I know just what I am I'm gonna be free and easy I'm gonna be free and easy I know just who I am I'm gonna be free and easy
