I'M EASY
From the film "Nashville" (1975)
(Keith Carradine)

Keith Carradine (Film Soundtrack) - 1975

Also recorded by: The Starlite Orchestra



It's not my way to love you just when no one is lookin'
It's not my way to take your hand if I'm not sure 
It's not my way to let you see what's goin' on inside of me 
When it's a love you won't be needing, you're not free
 
Please stop pullin' at my sleeve if you're just playin' 
If you won't take the things you make me wanta give 
I never cared too much for games and this one's drivin' me insane
You're not half as free to wander as you claim
 
But I'm easy, yeah I'm easy
Give the word, I'll play your game
As though that's how it ought to be
'Cause I'm easy

Don't lead me on if there's nowhere for you to take me, 
If lovin' you will have to be a sometime thing 
I can't put bars on my inside, my love is somethin' I can't hide 
It still hurts when I recall the times I've tried

But I'm easy, yeah I'm easy 
Take my hand and pull me down. 
I won't put up any fight
Because I'm easy

Don't do me favours, let me watch you from a distance 
'Cause when you're near, I find it hard to keep my head 
When your eyes throw light at mine, it's enough to change my mind 
Make me leave my cautious words and ways behind

That's why I'm easy, yeah I'm easy 
Say you want me, I'll come runnin'
Without takin' time to think
Because I'm easy, yeah I'm easy
Take my hand and pull me down. 
I won't put up any fight
Because I'm easy, yeah I'm easy
Give the word, I'll play your game
As though that's how it ought to be
'Cause I'm easy
