Free were an English rock band formed in London in 1968, best known for their 1970 signature song "All Right Now". They disbanded in 1973 and lead singer Paul Rodgers went on to become a frontman of the band Bad Company along with Simon Kirke on drums. Lead guitarist Paul Kossoff formed Back Street Crawler in 1975, but died from a pulmonary embolism at the age of 25 in 1976. Bassist Andy Fraser formed Sharks.
The band became famed for their sensational live shows and nonstop touring. However, early studio albums did not sell very well until the release of Fire and Water, which featured the massive hit "All Right Now". The song helped secure them a place at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970, where they played to 600,000 people.
Lyrics
Every single day I got a heartache coming my way I don't wanna say goodbye baby But look at the tears in my eyes I don't wanna say goodbye mama But look at the way you made me cry Every way that's nice you show You've got a heart that's made of ice And I know Fire and water Must have made you their daughter You've got what it takes To make a poor man's heart break A poor man's heart break Lover you turn me on But quick as a flash your love is gone Baby I'm gonna leave you now But I'm gonna try and make you grieve somehow Fire and water Must have made you their daughter You've got what it takes To make a poor man's heart break A poor man's heart break And my heart is breaking... I don't wanna say goodbye baby But look at the tears you made me cry Every way that's nice you show You've got a heart that's made of ice And I know Fire and water Must have made you their daughter You've got what it takes To make a poor man's heart break Fire fire and water Must have made you their daughter You've got what it takes To make a poor man's heart break
