Free the Lady

Barry Greenfield

She was more than a mistress
He made her his waitress
He ruled he 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
