Use Audacity. Its free.
Just decrease the bitrate and quality of your song and its size will decrease.
But dont decrease it too much or you might not be able to hear the song on your phone.;)

You can convert your MP3s into MP3-Pro, It offers reduced size at same bitrate.
You can even adjust the bitrate to suit your requirements!
EDIT:
I used to do dat with ma collection with the help of musicmatch jukebox.
Google It, you will find something worthy!!

You cannot compress mp3 files. You can reduce their bit rate and thereby reduce their filesize. But keep in mind that reducing bit rate will seriously affect quality. Once the file is reduced to a smaller bit rate, you cannot revert back because mp3 is a lossy format.
