Píseň: Easy, Come On

Interpret:
Kris Kristofferson
Album:
Who's To Bless And Who's To Blame
Everybody called the lady easy
For the way the lady was to please
Everybody told her she was crazy
Lovin' all that love away for free


People hate to see you make it easy
They'll never understand
Some take life for granted
'cause it seems to take so long
Easy takes it any way she can


[Chorus:]
Easy, come on, take it easy
Come on, here we go again
Let it go as easy as you can
It's the sweetest and the saddest place
A body's ever been
Feelin' easy come and go again


[Instrumental break, and in the background:]
.... easy
.... to please
.... she was crazy
.... and free


So let's take our time and make it easy
Bring that bottle from the shelf
Everybody's laughin' when there's money, love and friends
When they're gone the jokes are on yourself


[Chorus:]
Easy, come on, take it easy
Come on, here we go again
Let her down as easy as you can
It's the sweetest and the saddest place
A body's ever been
Feelin' easy come and go again


[Chorus:]
Easy, come on, take it easy
Come on, here we go again
Bring us down a bottle from the shelf
'cause it's easy come to anyone with money, love and friends
When they're gone the jokes are on yourself
