(Joe Babcock)      The neon lights of a movie marquee   Says the show today is Love Is Free   And inside a boy and a girl on a date   Their folks are gone away they're gonna stay out late   A little later on in a lover's lane   They park in the dark with their hearts in flames   He says oh baby go along with me   I need you so and love is free.      In a simple little room in a Chatanooga home   For girls that need a friend and are all alone   She waits for a letter that never comes   From a boy that won't admit what he's done   She had to leave school cause she couldn't stand the shame   Her daddy said she ruined the family name   Her mama cries herself to sleep at night   That's no way to start a young girl's life.      Love isn't free no, it ain't free   No matter what they say somebody has to pay for love.      In an orphanage home a sad little girl   Six years old and all alone in the world   She knows by now what they never say   That she once had a mom but she gave her away   People come to visit but don't choose Marie   She cries at the door nobody loves me   And somewhere a boy doesn't care at all   That her tear at night stains her little rag doll.      Love isn't free no it ain't free   No matter what they say somebody has to pay for love.      No matter what they say look who's paying for love...
