Paul Williams - She Sings for Free lyrics

She's the girl singer Who sings in the background On half the hit records You're hearin' today Part of the chorus A tree in the forest A little girl singer who's pavin' the way For a pretty young face Who was blessed with a grace And a smile that is charming and easy to sell While she hides the mistakes Someone else gets the breaks But because she's professional She'll never tell 'Cause she's the girl singer Who sings in the background On half the hit records They're playin' today Born sympathetic And so energetic A little girl singer who waits for her day It's a patience that she can afford 'Cause on Sundays she sings for the Lord She sings for free Freedom to worship and wait In the light of the one she adores She sings for free Freedom to live in a spirit of giving She gives more and more She's the girl singer Who sings in the background On half the hit records They're playing today None recognize her They'll always disguise her She sings for her supper And wanders away She's a star who receives her reward When on Sunday she sings for the Lord She sings for free Freedom to worship and wait In the light of the one she adores She sings for free Freedom to live in a spirit of giving She gives more and more
