Free Advice

(John Phillips and Michelle Gilliam)
A bit of free advice (vice)---
We'll tell it to you now (nice, twice)
If you've got some habits
Some people won't allow (won't allow, allow)...
Be cool; be clean
If you know what I mean

We've all got our ups (ups, ups)
We've all got our downs (we've all got our downs)
Some of us are careless
And leave I'm layin' around (layin' round, around)
Be neat, discreet
And keep your ear to the ground
Everyone has had a loved one who's far, far away
And if you don't want to take that trip someday...
(Think twice)
Be cool (be cool);
Be clean (be clean)
If you know what I mean

Everyone has had a loved one who's far far away;
And if you don't wanna take that trip someday---
A bit of free advice (vice, vice)
We'll tell it to you now (tell it to you now)
If you've got some habits
Some people won't allow (won't allow, allow)...
Everyone has had a loved one...
Don't be out on the street...
Everyone has had a loved one...
If you know what I mean...
