Warm And Free

Chorus:
F C
Warm and free, warm and free,
G C
that's all it takes to get a hold on me,
F C
warm and free, warm and free,
D G
you never know how low you can be.

C
Till you go into an all-night cafe,
G C
grab somebody's dirty old cup,
walk right up to the hot water boiler
G C
and fill that sucker up,
F C
then you add some ketchup, salt and tobasco,
G C
it sure smells good to me,
F C
then slub-a-dee-slub, you suck it up,
G C
it's warm and it's free.

Repeat chorus

Till you sneak into a party on a Saturday night
and say, "Hey, I'm a friend of Stan's!",
and you're easin' to the kitchen, open up the fridge,
and gobble up everything you can.
Then you crawl into bed neath a big pile of coats
and try to get yourself some sleep.
This life ain't swell but, what the hell,
you're warm and you're free.

repeat chorus

Till you go into a bar and meet a middle-aged lady,
let her buy ya a drink or two.
You look into her eyes till she says "I got a son
at the very same age as you",
then you say "You remind me of my very old mama"
as her hand slips to your knee.
She ain't raquel but, what the hell,
it's warm and it's free.

repeat chorus twice
