Love Is Free Lyrics
One
Two
One, two, three!
She got a shack
Floating down the Pontchartrain
With the water rolling in
You gotta swim before the levees start to crack
Another day
Another dollar down the drain
You go to town
No one's around
'Cause if you drown, there ain't no hope for coming back
It ain't no big thing if you lose your faith
They kinda like to keep you in your place
You never know what might be coming your way
Oh, everybody
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold on me
'Cause oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
You go to church
And pray to God for no more rain
A Cadillac, a paper sack
Well, hey there, Jack
You want some bourbon for the pain?
Hey, tambourine
Ain't no rhythm on the street
With the voodoo, what do you do
When the radio just plays on anyway?
Those crazy fingers in your jelly jar
They'll jack your money while you sleep in your car
They got the karma
They ain't getting too far
Oh, everybody
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold on me
Oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
Everybody come together (Love is free)
Everybody come together (Love is free)
Everybody come together (Love is free)
Everybody come together (Love is free)
Oh, everybody
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold on me
Oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
Oh, everybody
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold of me
Oh, oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
Love is free
Yeah
Love is free
Two
One, two, three!
Floating down the Pontchartrain
With the water rolling in
You gotta swim before the levees start to crack
Another dollar down the drain
You go to town
No one's around
'Cause if you drown, there ain't no hope for coming back
They kinda like to keep you in your place
You never know what might be coming your way
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold on me
'Cause oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
And pray to God for no more rain
A Cadillac, a paper sack
Well, hey there, Jack
You want some bourbon for the pain?
Ain't no rhythm on the street
With the voodoo, what do you do
When the radio just plays on anyway?
They'll jack your money while you sleep in your car
They got the karma
They ain't getting too far
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold on me
Oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
Everybody come together (Love is free)
Everybody come together (Love is free)
Everybody come together (Love is free)
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold on me
Oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold of me
Oh, oh, oh, everybody's making love 'cause love is free
Love is free
Yeah
Love is free

Pontchartrain, not "poncho train."
It's about New Orleans.
when u read the lyrics, they seem kind of depressing, but the song itself is very upbeat. reminds me of hippies lol.
I'm so glad someone corrected Ponchartrain because every other website has "poncho train" (what?) and it really bothers me because I'm from New Orleans and know what she's saying.
I didn't know that this song was about New Orleans until I looked up what she means by "floating down the pontchartrain".
yeah definatly about new orleans.
bourbon.. voodoo.. levee break
i like it.
