Real Good, For Free

This is Japheth Clark

But the one man band

By the quick lunch stand

He was playing real good, for free.

Nobody stopped to hear him

Though he played so sweet and high

They knew he had never

Been on their TV

So they passed his music by

I meant to go over and ask for a song

Maybe put on a harmony...

I heard his refrain

As the signal changed

He was playing real good, for free.

— Joni Mitchell
