They Call Her Easy
Harry Chapin
[Verse 1] It was just another night I was out on a limb Looking for someone to help me back in A couple of hours of cruising around Brought me into a bar and I sat me down Nothing much to be found So I got into talking to the old bar man He said you’ve got a problem I can understand And I know a little lady who is all alone If you find her she will take you home She don’t like to spend her nights alone [Chorus] They call her easy They say it’s not a way for a body to be They call her easy She was givin’ out her love for free [Verse 2] Well I found her on the street like the bartender said She was not great looking but not that bad So I walked on up to her and didn’t say a word But my eyes were talking and I think she heard Yes she heard me We walked down the road to a run down farm She lit a couple candles and she held out her arms Lord she was gentle as a wind blown sigh In the morning while I’m dressing I can hear her cry She was cryin’ and I went flyin’ out of there [Chorus] They call her easy They say it’s not a way for a body to be They call her easy She was givin’ out her love for free / / [Verse 3] The next day found me walkin’ in town I saw the old bartender and I flagged him down I thanked him for the girl and told him that she had pleased me And laughed a little bit about how she was easy But the old man stopped with a look in his eye He said you know I hoped you weren’t that kind of guy Ah dream of the kind of world it could be If we were free with our love like easy It’s a hard world you must learn to be easy In a cold cold world I must love the ones who please me Easy [Chorus] They call her easy They say it’s not a way for a body to be They call her easy ’Cause she was givin’ out her love for free
