Ain't For Free - Grin, Nils Lofgren

I’ll take you out to dinner and surround you with the best

I’m gonna treat you right day and night

I don’t need no stop for rest

Oh wait a minute, want you to wait a minute now babe

It ain’t for free (ain't for free)

(Ain't for free) I’ll do just about everything

(Ain't for free) If there’s something in it for me

Yeah well I’m working hard as ever

And my wage has disappeared

That’s keeping you on easy street

But let me make one thing perfectly clear

Now I wanna tell you something now woman

It ain’t for free (ain't for free)

(Ain't for free) I don’t want this to sound selfish

(Ain't for free) But you better give some loving to poor, poor me

Now you are sly like a fox

And you purr like a cat

But I’m stronger than a lion

Even you can’t beat that

Oh baby, woah, I ain’t too proud to stop

You gonna pay more than attention

I got everything you need

Don’t talk, talk talk talk

(Ain't for free) chiller-chatter chiller-chatter

You know everybody got a big mouth

(Ain't for free) You know they so busy talking

They ain’t do any listening

(Ain't for free) Well if you got anything in your head

You listen right now and you dig

(Ain't for free) That is right, that is so right

(Ain't for free) Now I want you all to shut up

'Cause I got something to say

(Ain't for free) It ain’t for free

(Ain't for free) No no no no no, it ain’t for free baby

(Ain't for free) Oh no, God no, it ain’t for free
