Lyrics circa October 1967
Oh he set you free girl now
He cut the strings
That held your wings
From flying to a strobe light moon
What's it gonna be girl now
Flower scenes and magazines
That tell you what's in style for June
Dance in dark cafes
Fill up your ashtrays
It's so nice to be free, you'll see
Oh it feels so good to be
So on the go, so art nouveau
With no one caring what you do
Buy a new dress every day
Buy antique chairs or cut your hair
Do anything that pleases you
Fly down south again
No one will meet the plane
It's so nice to be free, you'll see
Come back with a winter tan
To hang around, you're back in town
But no one knows you went away
There's a new face on the scene
His smile is real and you can feel
him wondering what you might say
Now you're kissing him
Soon you'll be missing him
It's so nice to be free, you'll see
Other lyrics circa June 1967 that were dropped by October 1967
Fly down south again
Good friends will meet the plane
It's so nice to be free, you'll see
The city sure looks cold and grey
You fight for cabs you push and grab
You fall back into city ways
Locks and cloaks and tolls
TV and rent control
It's so nice to be free, you'll see
I came to the city...
