Jethro Tull - Cross-eyed Mary Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Who would be a poor man, a beggarman, a thief --
  • If he had a rich man in his hand.
  • And who would steal the candy
  • From a laughing babys 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 grey.
  • 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.
  • Shes a poor mans rich girl
  • And shell do it for a song.
  • Shes a rich man stealer
  • But her favours good and strong:
  • Shes the robin hood of highgate --
  • Helps the poor man get along.
