Buffy Sainte-Marie - Free The Lady

She was more than a mistress,

he made her his waitress,

he ruled her with strings

that he pulled by his will.

Like a silent partner in a growing business,

she was always informed but never really seen.

And her days dragged

and her nights they were bad.

She was used and abused

in her bedroom

but she stuck to the script

like a well trained actress

as her role was arranged

but it's time for a change!

So open up your eyes!

Your life is just a lie!

Can you free the lady?

Free The Lady!

Free The Lady!

Free The Lady!

Right Away!

Right Away!

She was never a queen,

though her man was a king

he rambled and gambled,

free like the wind.

While his wife spent her life

lost in the kitchen,

her joy was the children

and the reason she remained!

So open up your eyes!

Your life is just a lie!

Can you free the lady?

Free The Lady!

Free The Lady!

Free The Lady!

Right Away!

Right Away!

So open up your eyes!

Your life is just a lie!

Can you free the lady?

Free The Lady!

Free The Lady!

Free The Lady!

Right Away!

Right Away!

In Your Mind- in Your Heart, Right Now!

Free The Lady! In Your Mind- in Your Heart, Right Now!
