LYRICS

ROCK, PRETTY BABY

[ Free and Easy ]  -  [ What's It Gonna Be ? ]

FREE AND EASY

Music by Henry Mancini
Lyrics by Bobby Troup

Life is a merry merry go round.
Try to learn the secret I have found.
Free and Easy, easy and free;
That's the way it's gotta be.

I saw the mornings covered with care.
Suddenly my mind said, "No despair."
Free and Easy, easy and free;
That's the way it's gotta be.

Once I was so inclined
To take life so seriously,
Gee, but I'm glad to find
There's a brand new free me.

Throw all your fears and doubts down the drain.
Learn to see a sky where there's no rain.
Free and Easy, easy and free;
That's the way it's gotta be.

WHAT'S IT GONNA BE

Music by Henry Mancini
Lyrics by Bill Carey

What's it gonna be, love or mystery ?
Got me hangin' fire with so much desire to burn
Do I lose or win or do I begin to bore you ?
Should I continue to love or just ignore you ?

What a crazy whirl when a boy meets girl.
Got me on a limb; do I sink or swim tonight ?
Have a heart and please confide 
before I'm fit to be tied.

Love or mystery, tell me, what's it gonna be ?
