Lyrics for Cross Eyed Mary by Tull Jethro:
| | | Artist: | Tull Jethro |
| | Album: | Aqualung | | Track: | Cross Eyed Mary | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 62 | | | | Lyrics: | Who would be a poor man
a beggerman, a thief
if he had a rich man in his hand.
Who
would steal the candy
from a laughing baby's mouth
if he could take it from the money
man.
Cross-eyed Mary
goes jumping in again.
She signs no contract
but she
always plays the game.
Dines in Hampstead village
on expense accounted gruel,
and
the jack knife barber
drops her off at school.
Laughing in the playground
gets no
kicks from little boys:
would rather make it with a letching gray.
Or maybe her
attention
is drawn by Aqualung,
who watches through the railings as they play.
Cross-eyed Mary
finds it hard to get along.
She's a poor man's rich girl
and
she'll do it for a song.
She's a rich man's stealer
but her favour's good and
strong:
She's the Robin Hood of Highgate
helps the poor man get along | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
