(he Played Real Good) For Free Lyrics - Crosby Stills Nash

I slept last night in a good hotel 

I went shopping today for jewels 

The wind rushed around the dirty town 

And the children let out from their schools 

I was standing on a noisy corner 

I was waiting for the walking green 

Across the street he stood 

And he played real good 

He was playin' real good for free

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Me I play for fortunes 

And those velvet curtain calls 

I got a black limousine and about thirty-seven criminal 

Escorting me to this halls 

And I'll play if you have some money 

Or if you're a friend to me 

But that one-man band by the quick lunch stand 

He was just playin' real good for free 

Nobody, I say nobody, nobody stopped to hear him 

Though he played so sweet and high 

They knew they had never seen him on their TV screen 

So they passed his music by 

Me I meant to go over ask for a song 

Maybe put on a harmony 

I heard his refrain as the signals changed 

He was still playin' real good for free
